HVAC blower

Is it just mine or does the blower for the HVAC system only really seem to blow on the highest setting? Even then its not overly powerful.

Is this a symptom of something wrong with my blower motor? Relay? Flux capacitor?

Possibly the blower motor resistor block. If there is no difference between speeds other than high. (no resistor on that circuit).

Do you know where that's located and whether it's easily accessable and changed?

Does your truck have manual temperature controls or automatic? (set to 70 deg. or slide blue to red).
If manual it is mounted on firewall near the blower motor with 2 machine screws. (I think)
If automatic it is a module mounted under dash and I believe it is in back of glove box.
Someone here should be able to confirm.
THE DILITHIUM CRYSTALS ARE WEAK AND ONLY RIGA 3 HAS THEM IN OUR QUADRANT.
I hope this helps,

It's a manual...thanx...

Would the resistor being bad affect the blower speed at all or do the X blowers just...well...blow?

Talking

Well you know.........The flux capacitor requires 1.21 gigawatts of electricity to operate. Are you sure your batteries are fully charged???
(What does that convert to in Canadian???? lol)

the high setting on the blower is straight wired with 12vdc, anything less than high has to travel through the resisters to be reduced to the level desired.

check your air intake, maybe you have on o' them beaver pelts stuck in your blower slowin it down

First of all, I'm assuming you're talking about the front blower. If its the rear blower, make sure nothing is in the way of the inlet vent (the little door at the back passenger corner)

Just my $.01
