Why does the blower motor run all the time?

Hi,

Either the switch itself has failed or we have a short to power. If you look below, I attached a wiring schematic for the blower motor.

First, what speed is it running on? Also, does it turn off when the vehicle is turned off?

Just for a simple preliminary test, remove the fuse for the blower motor in the fuse box. See if it turns off. If it does, then chances are the switch itself is bad. If it continues to run, then we have a short to power from a different circuit.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

Joe

See pic below. Note: I'm basing this on the basic system. If you A/C, there are also three relays involved. One may be stuck on. Let me know if you have A/C.

Hi,

It sounds like one of the new relays was stuck on. Is it working on high now as well? If so, it sounds like you had two problems, the new relay, and the old resister.

Let me know. I'm interested in knowing if it is still working correctly.

Take care,
