Hello,
My blower stopped working, I checked the fuse and the relay both OK. I purchased a new blower and plugged it in, still didn't come on. With the blower unplugged I have 14 volts at the blower motor supply and as I adjust the control the voltage drops down to 12.5v. I hooked up a direct supply from the battery to the blower and it comes on. When I tested the voltage with the blower motor plugged in the voltage drops to 0v. Any ideas what else is hooked in or where is the voltage supplied. Something is pulling down the voltage when the load (blower) is connected.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim

Jim:
It sounds like a switch or a relay. The resister would only allow it to work on high if it was bad, so work backwards. Check the relay then move to the switch.

Let me know what you find.
