today after finally getting my climate control unit in, i checked all the functions of the unit to make sure they worked. everything worked properly until i turned the blower on. nothing happend 1 through 4. i proceded and checked the 30a fuse, nothing.

is there anything else that i could be? or do i have to replace the blower itself to make the heater work?

ethan.

 

bang on it with a hammer, no joke. I have seen these rust up and seize. Bang the outside of the unit it might start going again.

lol ill try that. it hasn't been used in a very long time, im kind of resurecting this crx so that might be it.

however, if that does not work, is there any other fuses i could check, or relays? i really don't want to have to replace this as it is not cheap.

 

Theres a resistor that needs replacing it sits behind the glovebox in my civic. Take it out and one of the springs/coils will be broken so open circuit = no blowing.

 

I am having the same problem with a sedan I just bought.

I checked the wires running to the motor with a tester and found it was getting power. I figured it was the motor so I took it out, spun the fan, then tried it again. It worked! I turned it off and tried to start it again. Nothing. Repeated the last couple steps and was able to get it to work until I shut it off again.

I have seen electric motors get dead spots in them but never saw one that needed a "helper spin" to get going every time I try to use it.

BTW.... Once the motor is running it is strong.

If your blower motor is like mine I think the best thing is to replace it. Unless this condition is caused by something else?
