so im really not going to have any time soon to really work on it but i know the blower motor on only works when you push it allll the way over to high. do the motors usually burn up or do you think it might be electrial? anyone who has had this problem and fixed it let me know so i can get a head start on it. thanks

its not your blower motor, its the resistor for the blower motor, change the resistor and you will have full function of the blower control again.

is the resistor in/attached to the logicon? or somewhere else in the harness?

either the logicon is busted or its a blower motor resistor...which im not 100% sure is changebale on fc's, i could be wrong.



but most of the time the logicon goes bad.
