2003-2011 Ford F-150 Blower Fan Fix

The blower fan in my 2011 Ford F-150 would only work on one speed...High. This is a fix for that. It is a quick, simple and inexpensive fix that any DIYer can do requiring only one 8mm wrench or socket.

I had / have this exact same problem. Fan only works on high. Repair shop replaced the resister and it worked two days, then back to original failure. Shop replaced resister again thinking it was defective. Failed again two days latter. I'll try to fix it myself and will post the fix if I can figure it out. THANK YOU for the nice suggestion, glad it worked for others !!!

I had that problem and it solved it. That happened last year. Now i got the first 3 speeds and when i select 4th speed, it stops and hums.

This saved me from going to a mechanic

Does anybody have this issue with the fan just slowing down. Starts high, and then just over a couple of minutes just slows to nothing. Would the resister possible work for this?

Saved me a ton of time and hassle. Great video; only took me 10 minutes and a problem I have put up with for three years was fixed! Big thanks!

It lives in this slot so it can get blown and cooled by the blower it controls... What a catch 22 LOL. Great job Chef!

Nice fix Cheftush!

These poor resistors have a hard life. To survive, they need the slot in the air stream to be cooled. A bad design, but not only from Ford ;-)
