| Question from New Kid on the Block I have a 1997 Motorhome on a Ford chassis and have lost High Speed on the heater/AC blower motor. All the other speeds work fine. Any ideas on this issue? |

| What happens when you switch to high speed, no change or shuts off?

| When switched to high the blower stops. If switched to a lower speed it runs normal. |

| its probably the blower resistor. most common cause anyways. not sure where it is located on your rig though.

| I'd check for a loose wire since the high speed essentially bypasses the resistor, either at the resistor or at switch. I'll try and find you a diagram. |

| yeah check for a wire that came off the back of the rheostat(the resistor). if that isnt visible, test for voltage to see if you have an internal failure of the rheostat
