Blower Motor Circuit






HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING: AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM: Blower Motor Circuit; 2013 MY FR-S [03/2012 -]
- Blower Motor Circuit

DESCRIPTION

When the heater control Sub-assembly is operated, the Heater relay will turn on to allow current to flow to the blower motor and then the motor will start rotating. Operating the heater control Sub-assembly switches the current flow between the blower resistor and body ground, thus, shifting the operating speed of the blower motor.
