no blower motor 97 T&C

[fishenguy_61]

Wife calls and tells me no speeds. I checked the fuses and seems ok. We had issues with medium high but now nothing works, there was no noise to indicate bearing failure. Any ideas?

if it was growling before probably motor but medium high problems sound like resistor

Could be bad connection to the blower motor or the motor just went south, I have not tackled blower motors on these vans YET..lol. But when I checked them on my other cars I just tested them right at the motor to ensure power WAS getting there with multi meters. If so then I would say the motors gone. But I always used a direct power on my blowers just to test, I would dissconnect the factory power connection then run a positive to the power prong on the motor, then ground out and it should run if its working. Now as I said I have not did anything on the vans yet so make sure you can before trying this, but I cannot see why not. If it still doesn't work that way, it's gone to a better place.

Hey fishenguy_61, did you replace the blower motor? How hard a job is it? My blower is intermittant. Not sure if its the motor or wiring but curious on the complexity of replacing the blower motor. Thanks in advance for a reply.

If it's growling, it is the Blower Motor RELAY and possibly the Blower Moter. Here is everything you need to know, including part numbers and where to get them...
