Re: Disconnecting lowest speed on blower fan? 200 1981

There is a high power resistor which drops all the battery power not used by the blower in the lower speed positions. At lowest speed it will get quit hot and may be burning off some dust or even leaves. If you get a plastic smell the resistor may be loose and is touching the plastic heater case.

The blower is designed to run all the time to keep the ventilation system free of moisture and prevent mold and bacteria growth.
