Inermittent Blower Operation

[BLaz'n]

Help, It's HOT!!!! I have a 03 Trailblazer that started having problems yesterday with the blower. It's off and on, but been more off. The blower blows low,high or not at all when you have the fan on high. The connection to the motor itself is solid. Tonite I got the blower to work fine then I cut Ac off and then back on. The fan was blowing low but seemed to pick up speed to high, cut Ac back off and back on and Ac was blowing low, the 3rd time it would not blow at all. Don't believe that I have a bad connection as these test were done sitting in the drive. Could this be a bad motor? Thanks, Dave

Check for voltage to the blower motor. On high you should have 12 volts while trying to operate the motor. If not check for switch or wiring problems. If yes replace motor.

Another clue has now poped up. The blower continues to blow after the engine is cut off. The only way to stop this is to remove the fuse.

Replace the blower relay/resistor, behind the glove box mounted on the blower case, common problem.
