Blower Motor Resistor: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
A blower motor resistor is used on this model when it is equipped with the manual temperature control (MTC) heater-A/C system. Models equipped with the automatic temperature control (ATC) system use a blower power module, instead of the blower motor resistor See Fig 1.(Refer to HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/CONTROLS/POWER MODULE - DESCRIPTION) .
The blower motor resistor is mounted to the bottom of the HVAC housing, directly behind the glove box. The blower motor resistor consists of a molded plastic mounting plate with an integral wire connector receptacle. Concealed behind the mounting plate is the resistor circuit board.
The blower motor resistor is accessed for service by removing the passenger side silencer panel.
