Hi everyone, I know this has been discussed a lot. But I think I might have a different twist. I bought this truck used September 2016. When I took delivery, the dealer told me he had to replace the fan motor due to the fan not running right.
It worked fine for three months. Then it started coming on and off. I mean, it would be running, then stop. In a little while it would come on again. Switching speeds made no difference. The intermittent thing just kept going. Suddenly in early January, it stopped altogether.
I started reading your forums. I replaced the resistor. One of the prongs was a little black and the plastic housing around it was a little irregular like maybe too hot.
As soon as I did, the fan ran great again. For two days. Then right back to nothing. I just replaced the motor tonight and still nothing. I can hear all the doors moving when I do the controls and just a teeny bit of air moves when I turn on the defrost.
So, where do I go now?
