buddy
it could be the final stage resistor pack (the sword) it could be shorted try turning on the fan on high and then back one notch at a time if the fan speed does not change then this is the problem
thats what it is. How do I change resistor pack and where do I get a new one?
thanx for the diagnosis
HelP!!!
The fan speed does not change, so I think that is my problem where is this "final stage resistor pack (the sword)"? Is it similar to a fuse or what Can some one tell me what the heck it is? Thanx
