The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
This step checks for continuous operation of the blower motor.
This step tests for a short to voltage in the blower motor control circuits.
Step | Action | Yes | No |

1 | Did you perform the HVAC diagnostic system check? | Go to Step 2 | |
Is the blower motor OFF? | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems | Go to Step 3 | |
Important: The blower motor switch must remain in the OFF position during this step.
Does the test lamp illuminate while the lamp is connected to any of the blower motor control circuits? | Go to Step 4 | Go to Step 5 | |
4 | Test the appropriate control circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and to Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 9 | Go to Step 6 |
5 | Inspect for bad harness connections at the blower motor resistor assembly. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and to Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 9 | Go to Step 7 |
6 | Inspect for bad harness connections to the HVAC control module. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and to Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 9 | Go to Step 8 |
7 | Replace the blower motor resistor assembly. Refer to Blower Motor Resistor Assembly Replacement in Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. Did you complete the replacement? | Go to Step 9 | -- |
8 | Replace the HVAC control module. Refer to HVAC Control Module Replacement . Did you complete the replacement? | Go to Step 9 | -- |
9 | Operate the system in order to verify the repair. Did you correct the condition? | System OK | Go to Step 2 |
