Chrysler concorde blower motor resistor Videos

Just replaced the fan switch which was kind of a pain in the butt and it cost $40 from a junk yard. Put it in and of course it didn't fix the problem. Came inside and found this post went to the Auto Zone and in 10 minutes and $23 later had the problem solved. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! BTW: You were hysterical in the video. :)

Looks like your lens might have an internal issue as a result of the camera being dropped. If thats the problem the lens is half the cost of a new camera.Is it under any kind of warranty? Did you buy an extended warranty when bought the camera? It may cover that kind of issue.Doesnt take much of a drop to screw up a camera.

Hy. This is my brother id, but. I am from Europe. I have a 1997 Chrysler Stratus LE 2.0 131bhp. In 3 weacs i changed 3 heat resistors. Fan speds 1,2,3. Dont work. Want thoo do. I can not afort to buy each weeak a new heat resistor.. OMG there are so weak. Sory my bad english and if you can please help me. Thanx

My Cirrus has this issue and I plan on trying to fix it when i get the part. I hope this helps. Thanks for the instructive video that is going to save me a bundle. (if it works) Mechanic priced it at $200 without labor! Thanks again!!

thanx !!! that was very helpful..man , i have the same car..wht a junk..everthing is falling apart. but i know wht happen to the fan blower resister, when if you leave the fan on , and turn on he engeine, it shorts it out.

Thank you! I have an 05 status. Resistor looks little different. But same install. Couldn't have done it without video because dodge forum said to remove glove box. I was lost. Thank you so much!

Dude your hilarious. You sound just like me whenever I work on my piece of crap car. Gotta do this for my 98 breeze. At least I won't have to deal with a piece of junk camera while doing it.

Great video! I am from Europe (Romania) and in my country i hawe few people who know something about Chrysler and it is really hard to find spare parts. Thx again for the helpful video.

Thank you for posting this video. The money I save by not having a mechanic do this, I will spend on my children and tell them it is thanks to you. Love your attitude too. lol

Thanks a ton for posting this video. I know I saved over 150 dollars for installing this part on my own and it took only 20 minutes or so. Keep up the good work!

great video... 5 mins. after seeing your video and it was done... It would have been much more time. I did not know the push pins were not screws. Thanks you.

Is this what needs to be changed if the high setting only worked and now none of it does? The whole system stopped blowing today. I have a 98 Stratus. Thanks

Helpful video! And glad to see a video where everything doesn't just pop into place with ease. I'd swear a little more...but nice work!

My soon-to-be ex-mechanic charged me $180.00 for doing this for my car. Thanks for posting, Now I will be doing my own for my van.

Thank you for making the video and making me feel like I am not the only one who wants to smash things that do not cooperate. 

after this video I went in my car and started driving turned on the air... fan speed only works on medium and high..

This is the best instruction video I have seen. My 99 Breeze thanks you .Expect a nice check if i ever win a lottery!

Good video and I did get a laugh out of it...you remind me of myself when I work with the comments etc.

Thank you so much for posting this. Took me 10 minutes to swap the old one out thanks to your video.

i just replaced mine after watching this video. i woulda been screwed if you hadnt posted this video

+Barclay Reginald Cheers & thanks for watching :)

+Layne Tepleski if ther dual climate controls has 2 fan controllers, it's possible there are 2 different resistors. If thats the case, the resistor couyld be bad but if your van only has 1 but 2 blower motors, it might be the front blower motor. My vans only had the one fan control so i'm not sure. Cheers Layne

+Lynnda Padula your welcome! Cheers

+Brad Cooper My pleasure. Cheers Brad!

+Veiko Aart if the power is turned on for the fan, yes. the ignition is the main power for all the electrical in the van unlike the accessory setting. cheers!

+Waya Adisi im not sure how you could test it but if it works for awhile then doesn't it could be a broken wire or loose connector. someone may have a test walk through on the dodge forum or youtube

+ahwazy Cheers!

The repair was perfect! =)

Thank you for watching. Please let us know how the repair comes out!1aauto.com 888-844-3393

+stoppedsnoring I was really lucky. I gave up for the time being, let it go and went about my business. Was so surprised when I turned on the blower, as I was out and about and low and behold, all speeds worked! Some how messing with it got it to work again!!! Now I am glad it didn't come out! I had seen posts where hitting a bump made it stop working so maybe that was the problem, just not connected perhaps. Thanks for the note! Keeping the part for insurance!

+Mary Ruffcorn I was thinking the same thing. Mine was fairly corroded and I really had to work at removing it. Good Luck!

+B. Voigts Hey ~ that's great to hear! Good job!

+xsxthunderxsx I did the same so i took it back out (helps if you unbolt the AC pipe clamp and lower it a bit) and what i found was that the arms on the sides had pushed in too far and created a short by touching the actual resistor. I eased the arms back ut away form the resistor and fitted it back again more carefully and its fine. Actually i also checked that the problem was fixed by connecting the wiring back to the new part before actually installing it the first time so i knew that the fix would be right, just a bit clumsy is all =)

Yeah, that's interesting.  As the name implies, a resistor pack provides resistance in order to provide the different speeds for the blower.  The fan running through no resistors then would effectively be on high.  Sounds like there may be something else going on in your situation, perhaps with the switch itself or possibly the blower.

i think you need a new control module 

Sebring Convertible, Fix LED Console Light with EL Inverter //www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekKtSPcjXpI The shift indicator lights on the console typically will not work or the light will go out intermittently from time to time. This is a common problem on the Chrysler Sebring convertible The problem of the shift indicator light or console light not working is usually a simple solution that arises from a faulty or defective EL inverter. This video shows how to fix it.

Tks for the video! Really helped. Couple of suggestions: 1. On my 98 Sebring convertible, there were 2 plastic "nails." The one you pulled, and another near the floor at the left to remove the plastic cowling. 2. It would've been helpful if you'd completed removing the resistor assembly. There actually are 2 separate plugs into it, which required prying with a screwdriver to get loose. A bit more difficult than you implied. Hope this helps somebody!

Hey Syy, just to say thanks for this video, my son has the 99 convertible too, and developed this problem, an easy fix with you help.. Hardest part was pulling the connector plug from the resistor part, that thing was IN there, but it is all good now with the new part. Keep those Sebring videos coming, I really like the car, I am considering finding one for myself :) It handles the road amazing...

Thanks for all of your great videos. They have been very helpful! Note that if the resistor goes out again right away, like mine did, it is because the blower motor is drawing too much current and will have to be replaced too. In other words, it's the bad blower motor that caused the resistor to fail in the first place. If the fuse is blown it's probably the same issue.

It might fix it. But usually when the resistor goes the fan only works on high. You may want to try replugging in the resistor. It could be corroded. If you you are smacking something to get it to work again then obviously something is not connected good. It could be the resistor. That is the most common fail point and the cheapest & easiest thing to fix.

Great Vid Thanks for posting. Got a 2004 Sebring Touring, Would it be the same for us as well? Ours died (works only on 4) a couple days ago and going on Holiday next week. Not looking forward to 7 days in the car with only A/C on high.

Thank you do much, my girl's 03' Convertible AC went out. I bought the piece at an auto parts store but I didn't know where to begin looking for the piece located on the actual car. Does it vary from the 99'-01' to 03' models.?

I don't know offhand. You can sometimes pinpoint the exact source of a noise by listening through a cardboard tube or hose and placing the end of the hose near where you suspect the problem is.

Sometimes I have to hit up under my glove compartment for my fan to run again...and it only blows on medium and high, would this take care of that also? Or do you think its the motor itself?

Yes, that is the fix in the vast majority of cases. Also that area needs to be relubed every so often or else the vent knob gets stuck again. But it is easy once you know what to do.

thankyou very much for this video. figured it was an easy fix and this helped me find the exact part to replace. all your vids are very helpful. thanks again.

Had mine replaced, (switch was not checked nor replaced ) worked on all settings for 2 days........again, is only working on high. What else could it be?

No problem. I like the older Sebrings better than the new ones. If I do more in the future I will be sure to post more videos.

Great, thank you. My fan switch quit working this morning on all settings but high. I will try this.

It's still typical, mine just went after 8 years, and I own a 2005. =\

what do when the blower motor making noises when in park and drive

Good job on the video! Fix worked like a charm.

Thanks man i fixed my car !!!!!! Just 10 m

Dude you are awesome thank you so much.

Thank you thank you very much!!!
