ekimyerac Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 The fan switch for my heater only works on 3 and 4. The first two do not seem to work. Any ideas? Michael Carey, KD7GHZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TROGDOR! Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Your blower motor resistor is bad. It slips into the bottom of the blower motor (behind/below the glove box) and is very easy to change. The dealer wants some astronomical amount, I usually just grab a handful from the junkyard and after a couple tries, end up with a good one.

hooziewhatsit Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 sounds like a broken fan resistor pack. Skip outlines where it is and how to test it here: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showpost.php?p=282650&postcount=9 good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorab Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 I just picked up a resistor pack from Autozone today for a 1986 GL. The price was $41. More than jy, but I know it will last for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekimyerac Posted May 26, 2005 Author Share Posted May 26, 2005 Thanks, for the info. I will try and do it this weekend. I am not sure if Pull and Save is open on Monday or not. If not I will do it next weekend. Always find the help I need on the board here. Thanks, Michael, KD7GHZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthWet Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Just to be a little contrary, I have experienced a less-common failure: The fan switch itself going bad. One of ours only works on "2" and "4"... unless you press in on the knob/shaft and then they all work. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
