Why does my car AC only work on high?
Thanks for your question about the AC in your SL2. Your AC only working on high probably has to do with the blower motor resistor. It controls the speed of your fan and if it brakes it will only work on high. Try replacing that resistor first to see if you regain control of the fan speeds.
What happens when a heater motor resistor fails?
If the resistor shorts or fails, it may cause the blower motor to remain stuck on one fan speed. The heating and air conditioning systems may still function at one speed, however the resistor will have to be replaced in order for full functionality to be restored. 2. Blower motor does not work on certain settings
What are the symptoms of a failed blower motor resistor?
Blower motor resistor problems. Problems with a blower motor resistor are common in many cars. The most common symptom of a failed blower motor resistor is when the heater fan only runs at high speed and doesn’t work at low speeds.
Why is the resistor on my Ford Escape not working?
For example, as you can see in this photo, the blower motor resistor in this Ford Escape has failed due to corrosion. If the resistor shows no visual damage, the resistance between terminals must be checked and compared to specifications. If the resistance is out of specs, the resistor must be replaced.

What to do if your car AC is not blowing?
Depending on what kind of car you have, it should be a pretty simple fix. The problem sounds like it is with your blower motor, not your AC system. Hopefully, the blower motor simply blew a fuse. Find your fuse panel and check the fuse for the “blower motor” or “vent fan” or something like that.
Why is my car AC fan not working?
Another reason why your car AC fan is not working could be due to your cabin air filter. Cabin air filters serve as a filter to the outside air coming into your car to make sure it is clean and not filled with contaminants. However, if this air filter isn’t changed,…
What to do if your air conditioner is not working?
The temperature differential at the leak will activate the leak sealer in Red Angel, sealing the leak permanently. Once the leak is sealed, you can add the correct amount of R-143a refrigerant to your cooling system getting your air conditioning back to working like normal.
When a blower resistor fails, the highest fan speed usually is the only one that still works because it essentially bypasses the resistor and receives the maximum amount of voltage. When the resistor is working, it reduces the amount of voltage going to the lower fan speeds, so the fan runs slower.
How do I replace a blower motor resistor?
How to Replace a Blower Motor Resistor
- Remove the negative battery terminal.
- Locate the blower motor resistor on the passenger side under the dash board.
- Disconnect the electrical connector to the blower motor resistor.
- Remove the screws or bolts to the blower motor resistor and remove the resistor.
How do you fix a squeaky blower motor?
Spin the fan half a turn and spray a little more WD-40 to get the other side. Give it a few minutes to work in while spinning the fan a few times. Now you should be able to spin the fan without the motor making any noise.
What was the point of the Toyota 2.7L 4 cylinder engine?
It’s probably not about horsepower, but more likely about torque. Often a slightly larger engine can yield enough of a torque bump to be considered worthwhile, even if HP numbers are unimpressive. In some cases the torque numbers aren’t much different, but peak at a lower RPM so there’s a bit more oomph.
What does after 2000 mean on a Toyota engine?
The suffix (separated by a dash) specifies the features of the engine: After 2000 indicates E85 Ethanol fuel. Note: Other manufacturers may modify the engine after it has left the Toyota factory but the engine still keeps the original Toyota designation.
What kind of engine does Toyota cars have?
Engine codes. Toyota has produced a wide variety of automobile engines, including inline-four and V6 engines. The company follows a simple naming system for their modern engines: The first numeric characters specify the engine block’s generation. The next one or two letters specify the engine family.
What kind of engine does a Toyota Tacoma have?
Our rebuilt engine prices are highly competitive because we don’t outsource any portion of our rebuilding process so all these savings translate into most affordable remanufactured engines in the market. 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma 3.4 ltr V6 Rebuilt 5VZ Engine. 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma 3RZ FE 2.7 Ltr 4 cylinder Remanufactured engine.
