Car Question

[RayP]

Heat and air only work on full blast, what's the part and what would an estimate of fixing that be around? The heat gets hot, and the air gets cold.

Sounds like a name for a crappy pop song.

Depends on what exactly is wrong with it. Could be anywhere from a quick $100 fix to a longer term >$1500 job.

I think it's a blower motor resistor issue... and the part is ~$15. Now just need to figure out how to replace it. Anyone?

What car do you have?

I had the same issue a few months back. All I did was smack the dash a few times and romanced it and it worked properly again

Really? Maybe I'll give that a shot. Where was the sweet spot?

Take it to Checker Auto (or similar) and ask them what they think it might be.

That's what it is alright, don't know how helpful these videos are, you may be better off picking up a Haynes manual for your truck.

Good to know that's what it is.

I'm actually in the process of trying to sell my car, and was only looking to fix it so the guy looking to buy it doesn't ask to take a couple hundo off for it. Going to see what he says, if he even notices.... Might even see if he'd just split the cost of fixing it thru a dealer.
