WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Ford RV Cutaway, 2008 Ford Econoline, 2008 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2008 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The blower motor resistor has the following features:
- The assembly is located on the passenger side of the vehicle on the evaporator housing.
- Three resistance elements are mounted on the resistor board to provide 4 blower motor speeds.
- Depending on the blower switch position, series resistance is added or bypassed in the blower motor circuit to decrease or increase blower motor speed.
- An overheating protective device (thermal limiter) will open the resistor coil circuit when the temperature reaches 121Β°C (250Β°F) interrupting the blower motor operation in all speeds except HI.
- The thermal limiter cannot be reset and is not serviceable.
