Heater blower fan

I have a 2001 sebring convertable the heater fan only works on high I
was wondering if they still use heater coils for the fan speed and if
so where they might be

 

You need to replace the heater rheostat switch.

 

wrong. The heater resisitor block located under the dash and screwed into
the heater box is faulty, remove the 2 8mm screws to replace it, very easy
to do

they don't use the resistors anymore when You say the rheostat switch
is that the the fan speed switch on the dash ?

 

Ok john if you say so.. I have been working for chrysler for 25 yrs, I still
replace these reisistors today, my wife owns a 2003 sebring convertable, she
has a resistor on her car also, you must have a special kind of Chrysler,
replace all the parts then when it doesnt fix it..... replace the heater
resisitor block. This is out of the shop manual

REMOVAL
WARNING: On vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the airbag system before
attempting any steering wheel, steering column, or instrument panel
component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
(ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to
discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only
sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to take the proper
precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment and possible
personal injury or death.

WARNING: The blower motor resistor may get very hot during normal operation.
If the blower motor was turned on prior to servicing the blower motor
resistor, wait five minutes to allow the resistor to cool before performing
diagnosis or service. Failure to take this precaution can result in personal
injury.

1.. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2.. Remove the silencer panel from right side of the instrument panel
(Refer to 23 - BODY/INSTRUMENT PANEL/RIGHT IP SILENCER PANEL - REMOVAL).
3.. Disconnect the wire harness connector from the blower motor resistor
located on the bottom of the HVAC housing (Blower Motor Resistor).
4.. Remove the two screws that secure the blower motor resistor to the
HVAC housing and remove the resistor.

 

"Thank You maxpower that was it and it took care of the problem.

 

No problem John, once again if you ever have a question, Just post it

 

Sorry. That is what I meant.

 

they use a new style of resistor. and its located above the pass. side
hush panel 2 8mm or 5/16 srews hold it into place
