Blower Motor Resistor Replacement (easy) - 2008 Ford Explorer

Blower Motor Resistor Replacement (easy) - 2008 Ford Explorer - Fan only works on high

The climate control fan motor stopped blowing on several of the switch settings - this is usually the blower motor resistor that goes bad. The resistor unit is located behind the glove compartment and is attached with two 5/16” hex screws.
This job is extremely easy and only requires a few common hand tools to do.

I’ll give you major credit for even bothering- not only to fix it, but film it. Powdered Toastman to the rescue!!!! Kudos, Kriz!

Seems like other videos lump the explorers into a blanket category. But the other videos show the resistor on right side of fan. Your video was finally correct. My part was RU636, with 4 prong plug, and bent corner on bezel lower left like yours. Thanks for the video. It cut through the noise.

OK I'm jealous that it's so easy to take the glove box away to access all of that.. My 2017 is annoying

@KrizAkoni 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, the newer ones are a bit more of a pain. This is how my 2018 comes apart: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gtSjl9p00anWYIU.html

If I replace the resistor but it’s still doing the same thing, what could it be?

@KrizAkoni Жыл бұрын

My next guess would be the switch…I think that’s the only thing left.

@Edgarduenas214 2 жыл бұрын

What if the number switch works but the switch that has the blue color as cold or the red As hot dont work what do you think it is? Thanks

@KrizAkoni 2 жыл бұрын

Sounds like maybe one of the blend door actuators. I never had to do one on this vehicle. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gsyVgLeTuazRc6c.html

I would plug it in and test it right away, if it doesn't fix the problem you haven't wasted the time to screw it back in.

Why on earth would they make that headache of a device? I use to love Ford vehicle but it seems like today Ford vehicles are engineered to cost the consumers more and more. What happened to dependability Ford Motor company? Good grief!!!

Yes, I also grow tired of simple sensors with poor design - there is no reason this should ever fail, it's a resistor. :( Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
