WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis and 2006 Ford Crown Victoria. 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 in the engine compartment on the evaporator housing toward the center of the vehicle
- Three resistor elements are mounted on the resistor board to provide 4 blower motor speeds
- Depending on the blower motor switch position, series resistance is added or bypassed in the blower motor circuit to decrease or increase blower motor speed
- A device to prevent overheating (thermal limiter) will open the resistor coil 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
