may not even have a blower motor resistor, some newer veh. the fan switch controls speed with a seperate comp. built into the a/c controls. no resistor that can be changed out.

i replaced the blower motor and before i did i checked for power at the connector with a multimeter and it worked, so i knew it was the blower. i replaced the blower and now i dont get power at the connector. i've checked the relay and all the fuses having to deal with the blower motor and system, they are all good. i also checked the power at the relay, and when i moved the switch 1 through 4 i got power on my multimeter, so i know my switch is good. i checked my wiring diagram and between the switch and blower motor is the blower motor resistor. i turn my a/c switch on then turn the blower to any setting and the light comes on and i hear the a/c turn on. when i had the new blower plugged into the connector, i hooked up the positive and grounded the negative terminal from the blower motor and it turned on.

alright, i found the blower motor resistor, removed it and tested it with my multimeter. nothing worked, so its bad. i also tested the resistor connector to the blower motor connector and it passed. i also tested each wire from the switch to the resistor connector and they all passed.
so, please, if anybody knows of a place i can find a replacement, please let me know. ive checked junk yards, auto zone, napa, kragen, carquest and the dealer.
