Step 3 – A fan blower motor is controlled by either a switch in the passenger compartment or by a computer. If this fan motor is starting to fail it will cause the fan motor to run at a lower speed resulting in low air flow. To test this condition an amp meter is needed, connect the meter lead to the power wire of the fan motor.

How do I stop no air from dashboard vents?

This door is controlled by a thumb wheel that when activated will open and close the vent air flow door. Work the thumb wheel from one side to the other while checking the airflow. The flow should stop and start again, if the thumb wheel does not make a difference the problem is somewhere else.

Can a bad ignition switch cause a Bonneville to die?

If replacing the battery doesn’t prevent dead battery symptoms, a bad regulator/rectifier can cause problems that seem to be coming from the battery. We’ve also met a few instances where the culprit was a worn ignition switch.

Why are the brake pads on my Triumph Bonneville so loud?

Loud Squealing Brake Pads A few Triumph Bonneville owners have complained about loud squealing or screeching noise when braking. Because the brake pads on a motorcycle are more exposed than that on a car, they’re prone to collecting dirt and haveing debris lodged into them.

I was told they’re available at Advance Auto as well as dealers, GMpartsdirect.com, rockauto.com.

Are there any problems with the Pontiac Bonneville?

One problem is the blower control module which is like the resistor coils for old blowers is an electronic unit on the auto temperature control models. It sits on top of the air box next to the blower motor under the hood. The relay center needs to be loosened (1 or 2 bolts) and raised to access it. Available at Advanced Auto, etc.

What to do if your Pontiac Bonneville heater is hot?

What causes a blower fan to not work?

When this happens, you may notice that you will not feel anything blowing out of the vents at all. This may also cause the blower motor to work intermittently. A blower fan is connected to the negative battery terminal (also called ground) on one end and to the positive battery terminal through a blower motor resistor on the other end.

How to troubleshoot the air conditioning in a Pontiac Bonneville?

If you cannot hear the sound that accompanies turning the air from low to high, then the problem is likely with the blower motor. Change a fuse easily to fix the problem. The interior fuse box in a Pontiac Bonneville is underneath the backseat on the driver’s side. Remove a blown fuse with the fuse remover found inside the fuse panel.

How to troubleshoot a furnace blower that runs no heat?

You can avoid expensive repairs by troubleshooting furnace problems before calling a professional. The blower motor itself does not create the heat; rather it blows the heated air created by the furnace through the system’s ductwork. Start with the simple causes before moving to the more complex ones.

Why is my heater not working in my Pontiac Bonneville?

Most likely it’s the blower motor control module. It’s the equivalent of the resistors that are in manual heater control cars in the old days. It sits on top of the box near the blower motor. You have to loosen the one or two bolts holding the relay center that’s above the heater box there to get it out of the way.
