A/C stopped blowing, however I can hear the compressor turn on and off. The air will trickle out with the A/C unit on as long as I'm moving. When I stop it stops. Turning off A/C system air moves through vent system. I took the glove box off tapped the blower motor and wiggled the switch to the blower motor and it came on however only on low. Please help. Is it a resistor connector or the blower motor its self?

Good evening,

It could be either or. I would wiggle one connection at a time to see if the blower comes on starting with the resistor as that is the more common failure.

I attached a wire diagram for you to view.

Do you have a test light or voltmeter to do some checks?

I actually was tinkering with it and it a bad burnt connector and the filter is never been changed since I bought it two years ago. Once I pulled the filter out and figured out the connector is melted and charred. It works again! Thanks for helping me troubleshoot it! Will definitely recommend the site to anyone who asks for car help! Happy Easter
