I have a 2000 Ford Taurus SES. My heater - A/C blower stopped working. I replaced a fuse in the Fuse box under the dash (which according to the Owners Manual) was the blower fuse. However this Just gave me high speed blower. I do not have a low or medium blower speed. I have checked every other Fuse I know to check, both under the dash and under the hood. They are OK. What could I check Next? Or what might be causing my Problem? This is my First Post Thanks.

You have a bad blower resister. It is located behind the glove box in the blower motor plenum. It is a $15.00 item that takes about 10 minutes to replace. Good luck

Suggested Repair

Replace the blower motor resistor, located behind the glove box in the blower motor plenum. It is an inexpensive part and typically takes about 10 minutes to replace.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 2000 Ford Taurus SES reported that the heater and A/C blower stopped working. After replacing the blower fuse under the dash, only high speed worked and low and medium speeds did not. Other fuses under the dash and hood checked OK. The expert said the blower resistor is bad and should be replaced behind the glove box in the blower motor plenum.
