Nice video. Just thought I’d tell you that you can’t be shocked by a 12V DC
car battery.

abattoirfilth says:

my town and country has been overheating when the weather gets cold, there
is no heat and it blows air even after I turn off the heater. any ideas on
what may be causing this ?

Douglas Gross says:

Thanks for mentioning the socket size. A small thing to do, but quite
helpful.

Travis Robertson says:

I love you. Thanks this work!!!!

Thanks for sharing! I was able to replace one on a 2005 Dodge Caravan in a
matter of minutes. Only cost $14.99 for the part. Your video made it
extremely easy to replace. It’s working just fine now!

Can I just have you do a how-to on every potential T&C issue? I thought
this was a great help, and good entertainment.

Drewbuddy . says:

@MrWill1985 That’s a strange problem. Sounds like something is getting too
hot, or is now loose. Good luck!

22matthewlewis says:

just wondering if you knew if the back blows air and the front dose not
would it still be the blower motor resister?

BrainDoesVideos says:

thanks for the help

MrWill1985 says:

@wannawannastream The latest response I got back is that the switch may be
over heating. I do know my dealership has a AC check thats around $49. I
dont know exactly how it works. But hopefully it wont cost too much to have
the Blower fixed on my car. I if I could easily get that section where the
blower switch is off easily Id replace the switch on my own.

you are a god sent from heaven

Oldstuff Man says:

thank you very much.

Drewbuddy . says:

then you have a different problem. Check the fuse?

Nazgul001 says:

Great video! I just changed mine in about 10 minutes!

Mark B says:

Thanks for posting this. After watching your video, my wife did the fix
herself in less than 10 minutes!

Hagen747 says:

I first have to say excellent job with the instructions on the video. I
replcaed it and now the fan speeds work great, however, when turning it on
it now blows smoke out the vents and smells terrible l. Any idea what would
cause this? What do you do now?

Kia nFamily says:

@fatcatkaya what did you find out on that burning of the resistor harness?
let me know have the same problem. thanks…

jerry chancy says:

GREAT! Front blowerr stopped working. Checked fuses and watched video.
O’Rielys $16.41 with tax. Now works great Thanks!!!!!!

fatcatkaya says:

After I finnished the job I smelled something burning ? It appears the wire
harness coverings got hot. Any ideas?

mstangtony1 says:

@fatcatkaya Hey I had the same problem. Have you found out what the issue
might be? another thing is that when i replaced it with the new kind, the
5th speed was the same speed at the 4th speed.

Joe DeMarco says:

Great video. Instructions work like a charm….twice now. The tough
question has been asked of the nation….where in the heck is the resistor
located for the rear AC blower speed control?

Kirt Guthrie says:

Tackling mine in the morning. Looks pretty simple.

UTAHPILOT says:

is the resistor held in place by screws? is it easy to remove/replace? I’ve
gotten as far as unplugging the pig tailed wire bundles, but I was hoping
you’d show removing and replacing the actual resistor. thanks, great video

Maggie Petitto says:

Thank you! Mine is fixed now too!

Recycledhero says:

@WannaWannaStream- Dude your video and information was invaluable! Just
fixed our 2001 Dodge caravan thanks to your vid. Many thanks friend :]

Jill Sandercock says:

I paid $20 for the part and my husband installed it. It took about 10
minutes. We watched a couple videos first. I’m sure I saved about $100.
Thank you for posting this video for people who need to save money.

maurerpe says:

At first I thought I had a bad switch, but it turned out to be the
resistor. Thank you for your simple and straight forward replacement
instructions.

Drewbuddy . says:

Good luck, man.

stev9238 says:

Oh…May the blessings of all that is good, righteous and holy be upon you
video producer man/woman (didn’t listen – just watched) Turned this into a
10 minute job. Lol, course at this point I had most of the dash apart 🙁
Next job I’m looking you up first. Many Thanks!

SoundAdvice4u says:

Does this one resistor control both front and rear speeds? Both fans
started only running on high at exactly the same time.

mshowe says:

This must be a huge problem after 8 years. Both front and rear are out on
mine. I am replacing the resistor today to see if it fixes both. Based upon
my research, it seems I am dealing with 2 different problems, although that
seems a bit odd.

Drewbuddy . says:

Sorry — I don’t really have an idea for you. If it’s burning, and the
harness is super hot, I would probably remove it. Sounds like you have a
problem elsewhere.

Dan Wright says:

I have been driving around with my 2003 dodge caravan having the blower
only working on full for about 3 weeks now. After I watched this video I
went out and got the part from Napa and was able to install it myself while
my husband was at work. I am so thankful for this video. Great job and very
easy to follow.

Sserg36 says:

Hi! I have that problem with my T&C Lx 2003, but I saw that the resistor
new was different to the old, is not a problem? coul you say me what mark
is the replacement part? THANKS!

DIAMOND12612 says:

I replaced the resister as shown in the video. Hooked every thing back up
and turned on ignition switch .the blower worked fine on all speeds.I put
tools away and got in van to go to town. I started the van and the blower
would not work on any speed. I’m back to square one . Help or suggestions
please.

Drewbuddy . says:

Those symptoms don’t sound like the same problem I fixed. Cool heat sounds
like a thermostat. Intermittent blower motor could be this item. Good luck!

rbadohu says:

Thanks a billion for this video. My blower motor resistor went out on me on
my 2003 town and country. Went to Car-X and quote to fix problem was $250.
Googled how to fix this problem and run into this video which walked me
through fixing this problem. Got the part from the dealership ship for
about $25.00 and some tools from Big Lots for about $16. The work of
replacing resistor took less than ten minutes. and Voila I saved myself
more than 200 bucks.

Drewbuddy . says:

I don’t really remember. The front blowers are easier to hear. Sorry!
