How to test the blower motor on a Honda Civic?
NOTE: If you have already tested your Honda Civic’s blower motor (and it’s good) and need to just test the blower motor resistor (known as the blower motor power transistor), then the following tutorial will help you test it: Blower Motor Resistor Test (2001-2005 1.7L Honda Civic). Contents of this tutorial: How The Blower Motor Works.
Where is the relay on a Honda blower motor?
The blower motor relay activates (since relay terminal slot #1 is always connected to chassis Ground). The relay closes the power feed circuit to the blower motor and the BLU/WHT (blue w/ white stripe) wire of the blower motor harness connector now has battery power (from the #12 fuse of the under-hood fuse box).
What causes the blower motor to stop working?
8 times out of 10, when the blower motor stops working, it’s the motor itself that has fried but not always. Other components that can fail, and cause the blower motor to stop working are: Blower motor fuse (located in the under-hood fuse box). Blower motor relay fuse (located in the under-dash fuse box). Blower motor relay. Blower motor.
Where is the fuse for the blower motor?
Blower motor fuse (located in the under-hood fuse box). Blower motor relay fuse (located in the under-dash fuse box). Blower motor relay. Blower motor. Blower motor resistor (known as the power transistor). With this tutorial’s, you’ll be able to test them all and get to the bottom of the problem.
