Atari Boy 11 Posted October 27, 2008 There is heater motor resistor under the glove box, this oftern stops working. GSF do them here. GSF on eBay Or pick one from a scrappy, which is what I will be doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HERMAN 33 Posted October 27, 2008 (edited) If it has blown the resistor or the fuse then check that the motor is turning freely because usualy if the resistor or the fuse blow it is becasue the motor is starting to seize up and draw more current(power). Always check the fuse first then the resistor. Also check to see if you are getting power to the motor and resistor because it could be the control switch. I belive that the control switch controls the negative and not the positive unlike most other car's. Edited October 27, 2008 by HERMAN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
