Not sure how to determine if I need a new blower control module, or blower motor resistor? Problem is the blower would not shut off, even with car off

That is the same problem I had with my 05 avalanche I replaced the control module and it works great.

If you have automatic controls this is the fix for blower motor not shutting off.

If you have automatic climate control (pick a temperature and the car will self regulate) then this is most likely what you need. If you have manual controls (move the slider or knob from red to blue) then you are likely in need of a new resister.

Battery power goes directly to this unit. If the fan stays on when car is off, you need a new one. This is what happenef to me.

I had that problem intermittently too. I search forums and that along with the fan speed only working at high or low velocity were indicators of a bad resistor.

On the bottom of page 2 of the instructions that came with my blower it states "These blowers are not recommended for use with any type of speed control devices." The instructions do not state what would happen if one did.

If both blowers work on all speeds, This is not the fix. It sounds like your AC needs to be recharged. You should look at an EZ chill recharge kit. Here is what I'm talking about. You won't need the retro-fit adapters but you may need more than one can of refrigerant so this kit is the best option for you. It comes with the fill connector/gauge, 3 cans of refrigerant and an instruction CD/DVD. Interdynamics RKR-8 Recharge/Retrofit Kit with Trigger Charger, Gauge and CD

I have the same exact problem. Trade Station suggests replacing the motor and if that doesn't work replace the diverted.

Hi Calvin. I don't know for sure. Mine has worked great from day one. Are you holding the silver button down before you grip the the handle to start the blower? Push the silver button on the grip in all the way with one hand and squeeze the grip with the other hand. Should start right up. I didn't have to do anything other than plug mine in, so I can't say anything about fuses, or anything. Hope you get yours working.

The belt may be broken or the motor burned up....both of those happened to me! Get your money back if you still can!!!

Chip, I had the same problem several times. I finally registered my unit on Broan's website and included my disappointment with the issue. I was contacted the next day by their customer service department with the phone # for their service department. I called them immediately, they pulled up my information and explained that they had identified the problem and it could be easily fixed with a replacement heater and fan element. The original unit did not start fast enough and would burn the thermal fuse, the new motor started faster and therefore the thermal fuse would not blow. The fuse is part of the heater element to prevent overheating. I explained to the rep that it was -7 outside and I didn't feel like going into the attic again to replace the unit. he explained that I could replace the part fromt he inside and it was a matter of 2 screws and a wire harness. It literally took me less than 1 minute to replace the part and it has worked better than the original since. My previous ones only lasted less than 2 weeks. I was very satisfied with Broan which is more than I can say about the big box store I bought it from. The # for the technical support department at 800-637-1453. That should solve the problem.

We would need the numbers off of the motor to try and identify this blower. We can't reference by furnace model numbers as we are not a furnace dealer.

If the blower does start up, but dies after a short period of time it more than likely is the batteries. Try one to start with. I had the same problem and it was the batteries. Leave it on the charger long enough to get a charge also. I think offhand it is about 2-3 hours to charge, but I usually leave it on the charger for a day or two. They are ni-cad batteries, and can and will develop a memory if not discharged completely.It made all the difference in the world to have the new battery. My old ones are about 6 years old and only hold the charge for a few minutes of blowing before dropping off to almost nothing.

you really need to call the manufacture and ask what the Watt draw is, if its to close for it you might damage the inverter, also power drain on battery could damage it as well, might not be even able to turn of the car.. best bet is to find the watts on the blower, and get a similar Honda silent generator for gas. something like this Hyundai HY2000si, 2000 Running Watts/2200 Starting Watts, Gas Powered Portable Inverter, CARB Compliant

I would check all of your connections to the control harness, maybe they got loose. If the wiring looks good but it still doesn't work would contact warn or return it

Nope had same problem once went to aaa wave.com and ordered a 3000 rpm fan shaved the little plastic off new fan plug and it will work back perfectly. I would just switch one intake to exhaust and have front open using a small fan blowing in there until repaired

well if it sounds ok as a blower, but strange and rattly as a vac, I would check the filter for tears, if the motor sounds strange disconnected, I would try to blow air through it to knock off any dust or leaves that are stuck on the moving parts... if that doesn't work contact the manufacturer.

Bruce, In addition to the controler we ordered the motor unit. We found the problem was the motor and didn't replace the control unit. Susan

It is more likely the fan motor or switch. Usually when this goes out you will have no fan at all, or it will only work on high speed.I would recommend testing your truck with a multi-meter before ordering parts. Check to see if you have power coming to the fan motor and switch, and you should be able to determine what part(s) you need by process of elimination.

Hi, Unfortunately this blower specification is not available, and you will need to use a converter.

I cross checked the part number on the blower with the one they have listed.it worked very well on mine.more power than before.
