In this video I show the steps and procedures necessary to replace the blower motor and blower motor resistor on a ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks. In the beginning of the video I show the Diagnostic steps I took to determine that the blower motor was at fault. It is imperative that the blower motor receive adequate voltage in ground in order to operate correctly with a test light or a multi meter you can verify this very easily. Luckily there are no major components that need to be removed in order to get access to the connectors for these two items. I hope this video is help you out if it has please like and subscribe, if you have any questions or comments feel free to put something in the comment section. Thank you for watching

Watched your video. Just swapped my resistor and blower motor in under 30 minutes, no issues. Thanks!
I have a 2012 Ram 1500 and my resistor was different than the one in the video. I got mine from rock auto by searching 2012 ram 1500 outdoorsman. The concept of the video was the same though. Very helpful.
Short, informative, and a good presentation. Thanks...
I have a 2013 Ram 1500, it will be 7 in Nov 2020. Noticed last week the second setting on my climate control knob refused to work. The other three still did. Followed these instructions and pulled out the resistor - thing was roached with rust mostly on the side facing the engine, surprising since there should be no moisture there. Anyways, I’m in Canada and I bought the replacement for $69 (lol, yes). Easy to pop out and pop back in with the new one. Solved my problem, now working 100%. Do your own work - this would have cost hundreds if I went to the dealership.
Exactly what I needed to take care of this one my RAM. Thanks Aaron...
I’m glad this helped you out. Thank you
Thank you, Great tip on using the test light to check the resistor.
Thank you for making a video that's short, and right to the point.
Thank you for the video and the resistor tip thee other guy said there is only A resistor on the motor itself, thank God for you sir...
Great finding this. Informative 100%
Great job Aaron!
Great video, thanks for the information
Great Video! Thank you so much.
I been searching the whole morning using dodge ram 1500 i had to go out for store run, i stopped by my mechanic shop we talked about some thing about different car and truck. He said when you get parts for my trucks get Chrysler part. so when i got back I put in Chrysler not dodge, I got your video. just what i was looking for. I'm going outside now and take my blow motor out. thank you
good luck! good advice with the parts.
Good video keep up the great work Sincerely, Mike Rowe Rowe's Restorations
Great video I have the exact same truck
By the way I forgot to put in my comment this video did help a lot thank you very much...
Hey thanks for the video very much appreciated I’m having issues with mine not blowing on top speed like it should I’m experiencing lots of frost buildup on my window I live in Canada in the great White North so I need heat on my window and it’s been making a squeaking noise during operation.
My fan would only run on high(4), speed. I had it worked on several years ago. It worked normally, but after several months, there was a smell as if something was burning. Then again it would only run on highest speed. It’s operated this way for 3 or 4 years. Today it worked for a while and now it doesn’t run at all. The blower motor was making a loud noise, but it wasn’t making noise the last few days.
This is exactly the video I've been looking for! I've been having problems with my Ram's (2005) AC for a while now. The air coming out of the vents is cold and the blower motor is running fine (it sounds like what the AC should sound like when set to high) , but the air flow is super weak when it's on high. Would replacing the motor fix this, or is this a different issue?
P.s. we live in the desert, so would the dust and sand be causing it to not work properly? Also, both air filters were recently replaced.
Cool thanks 😊
My blower motor doesnt seem to want to ramp up anymore, and occasionally ill hear the recirc come on then die off, this has been slowly getting worse and worse over a couple years does this sound like a resister issue? when i get time this weekend ill get my test light on the plug like you did and see if its changing brightness to see if that rounds it down a bit more.
My Blower works but not right away even in Manual mode with the fan speed dial. I can't see the delay light come on in the display anymore but that shouldn't matter in manual mode. To me it seems to be working as if there is a delay but also as far as I can remember it does it in the summer too when the delay is negligible. Do you have any ideas?
I have a 2016 ram 2500 5.7 I tried to remove the grommet/collar to remove the cage to no avail so I probable need to replace the whole unit. Advance auto asked if I had auto or manual temp control - I cannot tell because my uconnect touch panel needs to be replaced - is there a particular universal part number
I’m not getting strong air flow from vents I have replaced all blend doors and my blower motor. Recirculate door isn’t sitting on the blower motor. Will the resistor cause weak air flow on full blast
cheers!
Awesome
My truck looks identical thanks about to do this
What would cause my 2014 ram 1500 3.6 to automatically kick over to recirculation without touching the knob? Or just starting the truck with the ac on, but not in recirculation?
God bless you
That's a pretty new truck to be replacing the blower motor in already doesn't surprise me my new truck I've already replaced water pump power steering pump tie rod ends wheel bearings and now it looks like the resistor is going in the blower I only have low and high speed air but this video did help going to get new resistor in the morning and after seeing how easy the fan comes out I'm going to take it out clean it and put a little Grease it does squeak a little when I first turn it on just a lot of dust in there I'm sure because my truck didn't come with the cabin filter for some crazy reason you have to install it yourself dumb.
On max AC mine will cut in and out if I am either stuck in traffic or at a red light. It acts as if I reached over and turned the fan down and then back up 3-4 seconds later. Only does it with AC on. If just using fan on high, it won’t cut in and out. Only with “snowflake” (AC) on.
I have a 2008 6.7 ram mine is not coming air through the air vent,,but it sounds like the blower is working,, I thought it was the cabin filter but I can't find it,,any suggestions
I've had my blower motor and resistor change and my ac doesn't seem to come on in he heat of the day. It may run for about 10 minutes. He ac will shut off but the compressor is still turning.
My A/C keeps making a hissing noise from time to time. Doesn't matter what speed it's in. Happened right after I had the A/C evaporator core replaced.
Was yours a dual zone motor blower replacement
Gracias..
No problem sir!
This helps bit not in the fact I need to change my blower motor. When I switch from ac to heat the air flow drops significantly. I'm hoping that the heater core is close to the motor and there is just debris built up that I can clean because along with low air flow the heat doesnr blow very hot. I've flushed the core multiple times and never had any cruddy water come out. This leads me to belive its a physical blockage of air flow on the vents.
My blower is loud and sounds like it’s broke or has trash in it! What do you think?
Was this fan making a whining noise? Replaced the motor twice now to no avail. Thinking the motor was defective. Turns out it wasn’t. Could the resistor be making the whining noise?
If the resistor is bad will it shut down power to the main plug? I tested mine today and there's no power going to the plug.
You have two resistors listed, how do I know if I need the auto or manual control?
I've replaced the resistor before,I believe one is for the dual climate control and one is for the single,mine was a dual
I replace the motor I replace the switches on the dash the whole component still cannot get Floewer to work. Fuse was blown replaced it but cannot get juice to the motor.
What year truck is this? Kind of important.
Hopefully you can answer this question pretty soon. My blower is hit and miss. Clicks on and off intermittently. Should I replace these items you showed in the video or do you think there's a loose wire or connection?
I borrowed my friends Tahoe and he told me if the air stops blowing to hit under the passenger dash hard and it will start up again. I think sometimes it works, then just fails for whatever reason. It's old of course and replacing it fixed the prob. Hitting under there while driving on the freeway is dangerous 😅😅
So my ac blows fine. My heat doesn't work well. Speed works great. So I'm assuming my resistor is bad or my heater core is bad
My 2011 blows hot air then when it’s on drive it starts to blow cold ,recently it stopped blowing cold all the time & it started making a weird noise inside the cab underneath the dash what could it be ?
Low refrigerant
My a/c won’t blow cold, will this take care of it ?
No, this Video has to do with airflow. If your AC is not blowing cold that’s gonna be an issue with the AC system or an electron a blend door motor
We plugged the new motor in before screwing it place. No air flow. Does it need to be screwed in before we get air flow? Or is there another issue?
Fuse or relay.
1st off thank you very much for this awesome video. What I’m experiencing is that every time I start my car the ac would start making noise and simultaneously switch back and forth from heat to cool air, after a minute or so it would either get stuck at cool air or hot air, would that be the resistor or the motor going out? Any help would be greatly appreciated
This is an acuator problem for the blend door, unless it is Manual
@@tiacohen2173 thank you
I replace the resistor and the blower motor but still the fan won't work, when I turn the knob none of the settings work, any advice on what to try next?
Fuse or relay.
How can i check if your blower resistor not working my truck stop throwing air through the vents?
Hey Aaron, my 2013 ram 1500 sport blower motor makes an electrical whine when it is on, almost like a capacitor. Have you ever heard of that before? It is independent of fan speed but goes away when you turn the fan off so it is that circuit.
I have seen this issue when brushes inside blower motor or worn. It makes the noise during all fan speeds correct?
@@AaronHinesAuto correct it's only related to wether the fan is on or not
Yup, I’ve had the exact same noise issue with my 2014 1500. Not going to lie, this will probably be the last dodge I buy due all of the quality control and durability issues. My truck is a daily driver with 70,000 miles on it. I’ve had computer/electrical issues, window seal issues, and issues with the exhaust manifold (leak due to dissimilar metals causing lack of seal). The thing is a mess for a commuter vehicle in south Texas.
@@jeromeygreen4788 did you ever find the cause of this whine? I am experiencing it. Everything you described. Did you replace the blower like in this video?
@@Bucstiger4040 no but due to a different issue I will be replacing the blower and resistor soon. I will try to remember to update this when I do with what happens
Is there a fuse for the blow motor?
There’s a relay
@@Glorytoglorzo thanks
How much did this cost you??
What's the part number for the blower motor?
And resistor
So I’ve got power as described in video bought new blower hooked up and nothing
Same with mine, I even hooked up the fan to the battery and the fan worked
Where is the info on the part numbers?
in the describtion of the video. click the show more button and you will see them
my blower motor has the resister built in to the motor so I am told, I guess I will find out cause it quit blowing.
keep in mind this one is without climate control
The resistor is in a different location on a 2014.
Phillip's headed screw........
Ohhhhhhh
Ok
