In this video we have a look at a Dodge Durango that was dropped off from an other local shop and they were having a hard time figuring out why the blower motor stopped working. They had replaced the blower motor, resistor, HVAC switch and ignition switch. Let's see what we find! -Enjoy!

    Far from lame! Always learn something from your vids

    excellent it serves me a lot, greetings from Mexico

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars metallikat05 says:

    I have an ‘02 that blew the resistor, and when I went diving in salvage for a new one and a new harness, they were just about out of those…super common issue. Currently, the blower constantly runs even with the switch off, and high doesn’t work (like off is 1, and 4 is off)…seems the switch is now backwards. 🤷‍♂️ No big deal, just the knock around spare car.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Isaac Garcia says:

    What would you suggest if my dads same year Durango blows on 1,2,3 speed but on the 4th it cuts off completely. He replaced the resister and it seems to be blowing harder now on the third setting but when you go to 4th max speed blower more cuts out completely

    Nice video

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars whiskey moon says:

    Hey I have a Durango same year and everything and my blower motor ain’t working either and you didn’t put the link to the diagrams in the disruption lol

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Saul Marques says:

    Great informational video. I learned a lot. Just hate YouTube ads. Lol

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Patrick Bainbridge says:

    I have a 2000 dodge dakota, how do i replace the blower motor, i already replaced the resistor up top behind the dash, how do i get behind that casing shell to get to the blower motor

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James Wood says:

    Needs a little fluid film

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars dv Vaughn says:

    half the fender is missing

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Shane Harrison says:

    Awesome as always

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! Preston Rich says:

    Nice, way to go the extra mile to do a proper diagnosis.

    About 90% of car mechanics are idiots. This guy belongs to other 10% (me too… most of the times :))

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Thisisserious says:

    Fun to watch tho, you’re a good guy

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Roberto Suarez says:

    I like your approach to the problem, Troubleshooting and understanding of electricity wich hardly anyone nowadays understands; Congratulations!

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Brady Moeller says:

    I clicked on this knowing she was gonna be rusty because it’s a older Chrysler in New York, but not that bad lol! I live in Illinois but never seen one that bad here

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars darren beller says:

    Love your videos working on a Dodge Durango same year tomorrow and you helped me out a lot

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dirk Papania says:

    Loved the video looking forward to fixing that blower motor it’s 110° in the shade in Arizona LOL. I suspect it’s a loose wire because you’ve rolled out everything else. I’m a disabled vet and the fix looks like it something I should be able to do. Wish me luck brother!

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Robins says:

    Good diagnostic skills to find that source of the reason for the blown fuse.

    This truck seen better days man oh man

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars BUZ1952 Z says:

    If it went up in smoke only drive 5 miles an hour and no one will notice. 🙂

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Martino Foster says:

    I wonder what year because I'm having the same problem

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hsvsbs says:

    Diagram link for wiring please

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lance Rudy says:

    Nice job with the wiring diagram!

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars mahkwa12 says:

    Your pretty dam good! Good job. I just wish yous would explain more in detail, step back step. Like for example, are you going through the back glove compartment to even get to the wiring? After all we arent all mechanic literate like you! :P.

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sean and April Walker says:

    I am in awe of your analytical abilities. So many people would have fixed the blower motor and left the customer coming back again with the same problem. Kudos to you sir!

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! John Rodrigues says:

    Classic doctor o troubleshooting!

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars RANDALLOLOGY says:

    The other shop must be idiots.
    Some folks are really intimidated buy electrical wiring. I love it myself.. A factory diagram helps diagnosis time.

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Richard Canales says:

    I got POWER. Both side's. At THA ac blower MOTOR. Plug

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Robert G says:

    I'm in a 2003 Dakota 4.7 4×4..same thing..two days ago started blowing resistors.original fan when carefully removed doesn't turn freely, but works poorly…..The connector on harness to resistor burned right two terminals, as heat melted them…It all began when i repeatedly started /turned off engine a few times..Then replaced resistor again, it lasted three blocks driving this time. No blown fuses.. Trying to understand which relay is involved under hood or left of dash,however….Tonight replacing motor,resistor, and harness.Hope it doesn't smoke itself the instant i turn the fan control.Have been in habit of leaving fan where set (on) when turning truck off…soon as turned engine on poof!….I sure hope the 16-year-old fan is /was drawing to much,etc…I removed fuses to cigarette lighter ….Great video…..!! my compliments…

    How big of a wok do you need to stir fry that thing?

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Halldór Ragnarsson says:

    The mouse sure liked that fender

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sarah Sargent says:

    Eric ,Who gave that truck a ticket..???

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Edward Myers says:

    Jesus that thing is chewed up!

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HFTONE says:

    Must be nice to have a shop nearby that doesn't know enough to check all circuits on a fuse that's blowing and sends you the work with everything torn apart! Was that the shade tree mechanic auto repair shop?

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeffery Chadd says:

    That poor Durango ☹️

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Riccy Retz Productions says:

    I have a 2002 dodge Durango n my heater in front dnt work it was working one morning n smelled like wires burning n stop but my back heater still works not the front tho

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Quantum Leap says:

    It would seem to me that the owner of the Durango would have a case against the other shop that shotgunned the problem with no result. If it was my vehicle, I would demand a refund of all charges. Ineptness on the part of the shop does not constitute a penalty on my part. Any possibility of a follow up to find out if the customer was able to recoup his unwarrented charges?

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars BLACKANDYELLOWGARAGE says:

    This blower setup just arrived at my shop. It appears the blower motor needs to be replaced. This is another engineering marvel.

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jordan Cerace says:

    Goin thru the same thing right now; swapped the resistor, put in new fan motor, put in new climate control switch, #7 slot fuse in the driver door side of dash is new, relay in engine bay is new. rear window wiper and rear defrost work, but fan motor doesnt. When i swapped in the new fan motor i plugged it into the harness and tested it before reassembling the cover and it worked fine. As soon as everything was back together and i fired up the truck…no more fan. But my rear wiper and defrost still work, and the fuse is still good. 🤬🔫

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mike Chiodetti says:

    Great Video! Key words, " What else is on the circuit?" I used to hate it when the aftermarket people tied in their "stuff" to a fused circuit, instead of fusing it with a separate fuse. Another thing was using a 20 Amp fuse for their "stuff", on a vehicle circuit fused with a 10 AMP FUSE! Gee, which one blew first?
