Blower motor resistor repair

Post by merk23literturbo »

If your blower only works on high it may be the resistor pack which is accessed from under the hood on top of the blower motor assembly. The thermal fuse goes bad. I found them on line cheap and took some pictures for reference. Taking out the old one is hard. I used a hardened pick to open up the crimped part. Here’s the pictures:

German engineer: We custom fit every part in the Porsche engine.
Japanese engineer: You mean that you make every part wrong to begin with?

Just don't try to solder the new thermal fuse in, soldering may ruin it!
