1989 BMW 750Li Repair Question


Topics covered: Blower motor.
Mileage: 170,000 miles.

Asked on February 10, 2011

Fan speed

I recently replaced the blower motor and the electronic controls. The blower motor only blows at one speed (med.) What other causes could there be or what else should I consider?I am considering Sword unit or blower motor resistor. Which would you think is more likely? I'm told that there is also a Aux. fan resistor. What is this and does it have anything to do with my problem?

The blower motor resister would be the most likely there.
