A. Inspect For Blower Motor Relay

NOTE:
Very few vehicles are expected to already be equipped with a blower motor relay.





1. Inspect the brake pedal support bracket for the presence of a blower motor relay attached to the brake lamp switch bracket (Figure 1) or locate a blower motor relay that is secured near the brake pedal bracket with a tie strap.

NOTE:
1995 model year vehicles that were built with original equipment foglamps will have two (2) foglamp relays mounted on this bracket.





2. If a blower motor relay is NOT found, inspect the area near the 84-way bulkhead connector for a WHITE single wire connector with BLACK ends that connects two PINK with BLACK tracer wires (Figure 2). If the connector and wires are present, follow the wiring harness to locate the blower motor relay that is secured under the instrument panel.

3. If a relay was located in either Step 1 or Step 2, verify that this is a blower motor relay as follows:

a. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

b. Turn the blower motor on LOW and verify that the blower is operating.

c. Disconnect the relay.

^ If the blower motor stops, this relay is for the blower motor.

^ If the blower motor does not stop, this relay is NOT for the blower motor.

d. Turn the ignition switch OFF and connect the relay.

4. ^ If a blower motor relay is NOT present, continue with Section "B - Inspect Ignition Switch and Wiring."

^ If a blower motor relay is present, no further action is necessary. Return the vehicle to the customer.
