Hi all! So I've gone back through the archives looking for anyone with a similar issue, but I am having a bit of trouble.

I have no air (or, barely any air) coming through my vents for heat or a/c. I checked fuses and everything looks okay, so I was thinking maybe I needed to replace the blower motor resistor. Looking through some of the old posts, though, it appears that the fit bypasses the resistor on the highest speed, so most folks are able to get their heat or air on the highest speed.

In our case, I am getting absolutely nothing. All speeds are all equally not blowing. Is this a failed motor I'm looking at, then? Thanks for your help! I'm new to working on my own car, and I don't want to get too deep down the wrong rabbit hole.

 

Cant remember specifically, but the blower motor was easy to replace (mine had gotten a little noisy and I figured it was time). I can pull up the procedure for yuh if you see fit. I'm just chiming in to recommend inspecting your cabin air filter if you havent. It's super easy to get to and requires no tools. You just go in on the passenger side of the dash, open the lower glovebox. With a hand on each side of the glovebox you pinch it together (it's held in by rubber nubs in a groove) then lower it down to hang.

Behind said glovebox you'll see lots of black plastic. one in particular is a rectangular box with a tab on it you can squeeze to open its lid. there-in lies the air filter.
Always the first go-to when troubleshooting fan biz.
Ain't trying to patronize here, if that's not the issue, let us know. It's just that all the dirt we drive through ends up caked in that filter and depending on your area and the time of year (pollen season in GA) it can happen quick, fast, and in a hurry. Excess build-up on that filter creates excessive strain on a blower and can lead to it kicking the bucket. But replacements are reasonable via rockauto at least. Think I got a TYC brand one. It's fiiine.

 

When my blower motor resistor failed recently my blower only worked on the lowest speed. So I replaced the resistor and decided to go ahead and replace the blower at the same time. Blower still worked but given the age of the car (09) decided to do that as well. Went with the TYC blower and resistor from Amazon. Noticed you live in NC also, could possibly help you if needed.
