Thank you. Very helpful. Blower worked 1-4 but not on 5, then went out completely. From what you showed it looked like the same problem. Very easy as long as you have proper tools. The hardest thing was the old style clip I ended just ripping apart. LoL. Thanks again.
Good job. I was able to get in and get out. Only issues I had was the plastic connectors. Also the the “RESISTOR BOLTS” was 5.5 mm for me. I was lucky enough to have it in my set. Thanks !!!
Lol...thanks for this video..I thought that you were in my trailblazer..I my dash is the same color and I have the same JVC radio and my heater went out like that to..Now I’m about to fix mines..Thanks again 👍🏽
Great video man going to use your vid to change mine this weekend it's funny that cord was all melted because I had just turned my air conditioning on and I started smelling like melting wires and that all of a sudden the blower wouldn't work anymore so this video made perfect sense to what I was smelling in the car before it completely broke I'll let you know how it works out
Thank you so much for posting this video! It helped me replace my resistor in my 2007 Trailblazer. I had lost 1 speed (4) 2 years ago and another (5) in the fall. I then lost the remaining three last week. I now have all 5 speeds! Thank you again! Todd
It sucks not having all speeds for sure, I still gotta do the one in my jeep, I only have high speed at the moment. Glad the video helped and thank you for watching and commenting!
"6mm had a long night out" "You probably have crap, I have crap, everybody has crap" Love car videos with little jokes like these. Thanks for the help!
@@Hugh_Manitee I couldn't say for certain but it may be worth a try. It's not really a difficult job, just time consuming taking everything off and then putting it all back together when it's been changed.
Thanks for the video, It was real easy to do... took me probably 20 minutes and the new one I got off Amazon for $24 works perfect.. and thank goodness I didn't need the wire harness that came with it because my existing one was perfect, but I think it's awesome that my new one came with the wire harness.. (even though I didn't need it) so I didn't have to do what you said which would be maybe going to a junkyard and all that crap!! 😃
Just this January I was warming up my 2006 Envoy in my driveway and my truck caught fire because of that resister. I even had it replaced twice. GM should recall these things.
@@E4EonEbay hey so if u said it stopped working. Did the back vents work when the front stopped?. Mine doesn’t blow thru the front but it still blows thru the rear vents .
As my daughters trailblazer only has the manual type heater controls unfortunately I am not certain that the auto climate control unit works on the same type resistor. Thank you for watching and commenting!
There are two different reisistor parts for manual (like mine) and auto. Just ask your parts store for the different kinds. Mine cost about $32 and the auto one goes for about $48.
I thought that power bypassed the blower motor resistor and went straight to the blower motor itself on the 5 speed, so I’m surprised that replacing that resistor solved the issue.
I had my fingers crossed that it was the resistor and not the motor itself, but I think because the resistor was so bad that it just stopped all together.
So my question is.... since GM don't protect the wiring or use the best quality in the first place to prevent this from happening, is there anything that can be done to protect the new thingy you put in from heat, ect to prevent this from happening again?
Unfortunately I know of nothing off hand that could be used, but it's a great question and hopefully someone else can chime in if they have any ideas. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Hi, great video! My parents traileblazer has stopped.working on thw 5th speed. I think this is the culpret just in beginning stages of malfunction, is that wire hsrness that goes to tbe blower motor from the resistor ziptied to the blower motor.itself? That was the only thing in your video that i have a question about, thanks! I gave you a like btw!!
Sounds like the resistor is starting to fail if not working on all speeds. There are two 6mm nuts that hold the resistor into the fan motor housing, you can see at 3:10 in the video. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Do you know what would cause the blower motor to run all the time? Even when the trailblazer is off and key is out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
All of my blower speeds went out completely then I replaced the resistor (mine was all melted as well) but it didn’t fix it any ideas??? Please get back to me ASAP thanks 😊
Thanks for the video and tips.. On my 2005 TB, my fan works on 1-3, but nothing on 4+... How do I know if its that resister gadget you show or the switch on the dash??? At 1st I was a 100% sure it was the switch, but after seeing your vid, im not sure... Thanks again for the vid and any additional advice.
@@E4EonEbay Ok man, ima order one... Between rain, my two jobs and other shit the wife comes at me with it'll likley be a few weeks before I can throw down on it....
I changed my resistor and it fixed my problem with the speed settings but the plug was burnt so I ordered a plug and spliced in the new plug and now my vent controls are messed up.i double and triple check the wiring is correct.any thoughts?
I have the same issue. But it only works in max speed. And i have another issue. Like when you control the a/c. Like where you gonna blow it. Up down rear or back only. Is not working in that control. Thing.
Thanks man but yet I still have a problem with getting my A/C Heater working Out new climate control module ,the resistor and the blower. It came on for about six seconds and went dead. I can not get it to work.
The problem with my trailblazer is that it does not change the air on the front panel, only at the feet and the windshield. What do you think the problem is. Thank you
Blend door actuator? Perhaps try the recalibrate procedure for the HVAC, there are a few vids online, often times the system neeeds to recalibrate itself after the battery has been disconnected. Thanks for watching and commenting
Does the low blowing power when heat is selected remain low on each of the air sections ( defrost, front vents, floor) or does it blow harder in one of those sections?
Update I removed all the fuses for the HVAC system (2 under hood & 4 under passenger seat behind driver) started vehicle ran for 2 minutes turned off reinstalled fuses started vehicle again let run without touching controls for a few minutes. Presto problem solved.
There is an mode door actuator that controls the section where the air comes out of. If you search for Trailblazer HVAC actuator or HVAC mode you should pull up information on how to fix that issue, Thank you for watching and commenting!
My chevy trail blazer stay turned on when i remove the keys i wento with a mechanic he charge me 250 dollars today im feeling so stupid so thanks next time iwill change by myself
Thanks this exactly what I needed to fix my wife's trailblazer
Thank you for this video. I replaced my resistor assembly today and it went pretty easy due to your instructions.
Worked like a charm and I got my mom’s a/c working again. Thank you!
BRAVO!
Remember the days of a cable to a damper that mixed the air ...with the heat or the cold??? I DO. Simple Simple Simple!

happy to hear its working as it should now. thanks for watching and commenting!
Mine works on all the lower speeds but not the hi speed. Would it still be the BM resistor?

Great video, replaced the one my 06 trailblazer, again thanks 🍻😎
Thank you, so much ! You saved us a ton of money ! Very well made video -

Yes, video was awesome thank you, now I'm going to go fix my blower
Thanks good video
Thanks for the video. Helped me out 100%.
big help but it is a 7/32nd socket thank you.
Word of advice. Replace the blower motor and the resistor at the same time.
I thought that power bypassed the blower motor resistor and went straight to the blower motor itself on the 5 speed, so I’m surprised that replacing that resistor solved the issue.
I had my fingers crossed that it was the resistor and not the motor itself, but I think because the resistor was so bad that it just stopped all together.
Now I know what my pop and wire burning and ac going out noise was good shit
So my question is.... since GM don't protect the wiring or use the best quality in the first place to prevent this from happening, is there anything that can be done to protect the new thingy you put in from heat, ect to prevent this from happening again?
Unfortunately I know of nothing off hand that could be used, but it's a great question and hopefully someone else can chime in if they have any ideas. Thank you for watching and commenting!

How did you get this black and red cable out with the orange clip?
It is not working with me
Thanks helped alot. 1 question WHAT IS THAT PLUG FOR THAT IS NOT CONNECTED WITH THE YELLOW ONE
Overhead console with dvd I think?
Easy job but the wire on my resistor wasn't long enough so I made it work.
Gonna try this tomorrow ty
Do you know what would cause the blower motor to run all the time? Even when the trailblazer is off and key is out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Good job man! Helped me out.
All of my blower speeds went out completely then I replaced the resistor (mine was all melted as well) but it didn’t fix it any ideas??? Please get back to me ASAP thanks 😊
Imma try it today during my lunch brake. I had my 5 speed working only and now it just gave out.
Is there a fuse on the AC control module? Mine works perfect sometimes, and sometimes it won’t work at all and just blows out hot air.
Thanks for the video and tips..

More than likely it's the resistor, I'd bet some money on it.

By the way, I never found a 6mm that fit those screws either. I end up using pliers.
5.5mm socket is the correct socket or 7/32
Great video!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Can you do me the favor of sending me the link where you bought the screen
Hey could you feel the cold air ? In the vents ..cause I can just not blowing ...so blower or resistor
So if you change the resistor and doesn't fix it.. also the blower fuse fuse is blown and keeps blowing would it be the blower fan?
Very helpful thanks
Great video! Thanks!
Nice video! Thank you
It helped. Thanks!

Thats why you buy the new plug and solder the connections
Thanks
Hey on my panel, speed 3 and 4 work, resistor? Excellent video
Most likely yes
Wow very good vedio thank YOU
I just put a heater blower motor in my 2007 Chevy trailblazer but it still won't turn on could it be that blower resistor please let me know thank you
I have the same issue. But it only works in max speed. And i have another issue. Like when you control the a/c. Like where you gonna blow it. Up down rear or back only. Is not working in that control. Thing.
Any idea on why mine stopped working while I was driving. The rear works tho just not the front
They are prone to failure, poor design by GM in my opinion
Thanks man.

Thanks a lot for upload this video the mecanic charges me 250 dolars for put this part
Very good video
I got a 06 envoy I have no ac or heat was working before spring hit and then it stopped randomly. Would it be the resistor?
And every time I turn on the heat or ac it makes a clicking sound depending on what setting I have it on
Thanks man but yet I still have a problem with getting my A/C Heater working Out new climate control module ,the resistor and the blower. It came on for about six seconds and went dead. I can not get it to work.
What else do I need to check thanks
Did the new setup pop a fuse?
The size of sockets are not 6mm and 7mm. You need a 7/32 and 9/32 SAE socket.
The problem with my trailblazer is that it does not change the air on the front panel, only at the feet and the windshield. What do you think the problem is. Thank you
I managed to remove it without messing with the glove box.
Hey i replaced this part and it now will blow on all levels but the ac is not cold ? Any idea
Blend door actuator? Perhaps try the recalibrate procedure for the HVAC, there are a few vids online, often times the system neeeds to recalibrate itself after the battery has been disconnected. Thanks for watching and commenting
Those screws for the resistor are 5.5mm
Mine melted in the g connection in my Silverado now I can’t get it to work any help
Buy a blower motor resistor kit. Comes with a harness you have to splice in.
I have full power f/ blower on ac on setting 5 but when I slide to heat I get low blowing power. Please advise
Does the low blowing power when heat is selected remain low on each of the air sections ( defrost, front vents, floor) or does it blow harder in one of those sections?
Update I removed all the fuses for the HVAC system (2 under hood & 4 under passenger seat behind driver) started vehicle ran for 2 minutes turned off reinstalled fuses started vehicle again let run without touching controls for a few minutes. Presto problem solved.
Mines just blow cool out tha bottom vents how do I get it to blow out of both
There is an mode door actuator that controls the section where the air comes out of. If you search for Trailblazer HVAC actuator or HVAC mode you should pull up information on how to fix that issue, Thank you for watching and commenting!

are you talking about the one that I ended up having to mangle to get unstuck?
Can this video be use in my GMC ENVOY ?

Good video, but you shouldn't need to take glove box out to get the lower panel off.
But either way clean the crap out of you glove box.

My tb today stop the blower and there is nothing happening with the speed
So im checking in ebay the resistor so i can change it
Where i can find the resistor
No need Don't need to take glovebox off
Sorry but the way theu drive here that woukd be kaos. I gorsee cash many accidents cuz there waychin the phone n hands arent on the wheel
so sad how this trailblazer is mistreated.
💪💪💪💪💪👌👍
It’s actually a 5.5mm socket
Klink bat
Crappy
Yes, GM has become crappy over the years...
