if the a/c only works on high, then your blower motor resistor is shot. happens all the time. get a new one and slap it on.

Message:
The resistor block may be the case if the blower is not working at all at lower speeds when you are in A/C mode or heating.

Do the lower speeds not work in either mode? Or just in A/C mode as you have stated?

Yeah...it doesn't work with heat or air....if that means it is probably the blower motor resistor how much would that cost and how dificult of a repair would it be?

Are these resistors located in generally the same place in most domestic cars too? I have a friend who this has happened to as well but they are too lazy to go get it checked out. What does the resistor usually look like?

Air conditioning suddenly not cool
IP: Logged

Message:
Fan seems to function at all levels, heat works too. No cold air very suddenly, seems to have a very slight effect when revving engine.

My A/C works at all speeds except the lowest.

Is my problem the resistor pack also?

I haven't checked if the heat works on the lowest speed, but the A/C light goes off when I set the fan to the lowest speed.

on the passenger side below the glove box in my 2001. If I remember correctyl it is 2 screws and then you just unplug it. Had the same problem with mine but it was stuck in low fan speed.

So this is apparently a common problem? good because I was worried I bought my 02 used a month ago and this just happened to me 2 days ago.
