4-door
  1. Disconnect the 4P connector from the power transistor.
  2. Measure the resistance between the No. 3 and No. 4 terminals of the power transistor. It should be about 1.4 - 1.5 k ohm.
  • If the resistance is within the specifications, go to step 3.
  • If the resistance is not within the specifications, replace the power transistor.

POWER TRANSISTOR

  1. Carefully release the lock tab on the No. 1 terminal (BLU/YEL) (A) in the 4P connector, then remove the terminal and insulate it from body ground.

  1. Reconnect the 4P connector to the power transistor.
  2. Supply 12 volts to the No. 1 cavity with a jumper wire.
  3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II) and check that the blower motor runs.
  • If the blower motor does not run, replace the power transistor.
  • If the blower motor runs, the power transistor is OK.

  1. Disconnect the 4P connector from the power transistor.
  2. Measure the resistance between the No. 1 and No. 2 terminals of the power transistor. It should be about 1.4 - 1.5 k ohm.
  • If the resistance is within the specifications, go to step 3.
  • If the resistance is not within the specifications, replace the power transistor.
