here is a technical bullitin. if the system operates on high speed and there is no other speed, then the resistor is bad, it is recomended that you replace the blower motor along with the resistor.

what about the reostat? the controls will not work at all

Accepted Answer

the reostat controls the lighting.

I am not so sure I know what your talking about.

Maybe you are speaking of the resistor in the bullitin? the resistor is what changes the fan speed by changing the resistance. that is what I am telling you is bad. what causes it to go bad is the blower motor itself. that is why I recomended this bullitin, it tells you all that.

can you point it out in the 1st picture. to pint it out in the picture, you can right click on the picture and save it to your desktop. then find the file, open it, then right click on the picture and click edit. then you can circle the part, then reload it up back on this page. to load it up on this page, look a the top of where you type me a message, there is a tree looking icon, click that then hit browse, you will have to find your edited file then re upload it here.

or maybe the 2nd picture is what your looking for.?graphicgraphic
