Buick A/C fan won't shut off |
|
|
The fan in my 92 LeSabre won't shut off, even with the ignition key
removed.
From other posts I've read that there is a relay or resistor that goes
bad. I've traced the wires from the blower motor back to the firewall,
with no interuptions, and searched under the dash but couldn't find
where the wires came back in.
Any help before I rip the whole dashboard out?
Thanks,
Dave

Assuming your car has manual control, it sounds like the relay is stuck shut. GM
often puts the relay on the firewall, about center, engine compartment, along with
the other
relays. There should be no reason for you to look in or under the dash.
The resistor is used to drop current for slow speeds and has nothing to do with
the relay being stuck shut. |

I removed each relay individually on the fire wall, and the fan still
wouldn't shut off. Are they hidden somewhere?

I may have told you wrong and you were on the right track in the first place. On
the N car is on the firewall. According to Chilton's: "Relays: The relay center
is located on the right side of the instrument panel. The relay center is mounted
behind the glovebox." |

| I tried replacing the relay on the firewall for my 94 buick park ave. but it still wouldn't shut off. Buick parts dept said that the module usually goes bad. This module costs over $500.00. Do you think its worth replacing? |

| Does anyone know if I can wire a toggle switch to the blower motor wires in order to turn the blower motor off from somewhere on the dashboard? in order to bypass the module. |
