Important: The mode switch must not be placed in the OFF position at any time during this diagnostic procedure.

1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
2. Place the mode switch to any position except OFF.
3. Place the blower motor switch in each speed position.

Is the blower motor inoperative in all speed positions?

Important: Do not connect the test lamp to the ground circuit in the blower motor connector.

1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Disconnect the blower motor.
3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
4. Connect a test lamp between the blower motor supply voltage circuit and a good ground.
5. Place the blower motor switch in the minimum speed position.

Does the test lamp illuminate?
