My wife has the exact make model and problem, so this video was super helpful. THANKS for being so detailed in explaining how everything functions and is diagnosed. Too many videos only explain how to change something but Skip the diagnosis. 👍👍👍👍
Cyle Tra My Pleasure! I'm glad to hear that the video was helpful!
Thank you again for a great diagnostic video. After cutting out the blower motor on this 2005 Malibu. Yes thats how its done. I replaced it only to have the Auto Resistor act up and finally fail as well. The wiring diagram showed P and G supplied by the resistor. Checking the resistor conn. I had a good ground but since the BM was not getting ground I am condemning the resistor.
Richard 1 My Pleasure!! I'm glad you like the video!!
Long live K Diagnosis,we proud of you keep doing your good work, thank you. Habib Auto
Suleman Habib My Pleasure bro!!
Excellent and well described procedure! Thank you
@solaron99 My Pleasure! Thanks
Great video like always, knew the diagnostic right way!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 KEEP IT UP!!!
Lidia Santos Thank you!!
Omg amazing video - thank you so much for sharing this. I feel 100% confident to replace mine on my own. 😁
Ashley Ludwig My Pleasure!! Good Luck with yours!!
Good diagnosis as usual.
Thanks for the video
Koné Zoumana My Pleasure bro!!
Ran into the exact same thing. Big thanks for your excellent video!
@mcollin18 My Pleasure!
Blessings boys. Thank you for posting this video. You just saved me time and money. Peace, thanks and gratitude from Canada!
Bdoodee My Pleasure! I'm glad to hear that the video was helpful!
Thank you so much for this video! I was able to diagnose and replace the part right in the parts store parking lot.
@Brootis My Pleasure!
It's very helpful, thank you very much !
@jiemingtang9665 My Pleasure!
So nice to meet your big brother in the video. You have a very nice family.
Timothy Horne Thank you!!
Great video Man I'm from South Africa experiencing the same problem, but now I know how I'm gonna solve my problem thank so much
thembanator.t themba My Pleasure!! I'm glad to hear that the video will be helpful, and thanks for letting me know where you are watching from!!
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair Thanks for the reply Man I can't wait to see more videos like__[AC gas is full but, when u disangage it, is not cold]
@@thembanator.tthemba6766 My Pleasure!! there will be more videos coming out, stay tuned!!
Good video, as usual. This is a known problem especially with VALEO blowers.Snow gets into the bottom portion of the assembly and melts, water collects around the lower bearing of the motor and freezes at night. Resistor pack survives the start. It's a small thermoresistor (the blue-green on your video) under $2 which blows, Much cheaper repair for DIY if you have a high temperature solder. Prevention: drill 1mm hole at the bottom of the blower. All condensate will drain. You can also spray WD40 into the hole once in a while to lubricate the bottom bearing,
Igor PMR Thank your for your input!!
Thanks Igor
Clear explanation another great video 👍
Joe Briano Thank you!!
What if the blower doesn’t work at any speed? Same solution? Great video by the way! Thanks.
@ivanvega2821 Yes! My Pleasure!
Another great video 👍🏻🤩
turbo8711 Thank you!!
Thanks man!
Fraser Allen My Pleasure!!
Great video, love the use of the diagram to explain the problem!
Do you know where I can find those diagrams ?
@user-jh4ks6og2u Thanks! you can get those diagrams from mitchell prodemand!
Great video... my daughters car is doing the same thing. I think I will by the resister and the blower motor and put in the resister first. Is the blower motor in the same vicinity? I just subscribed... you have the best videos out there. thank you so much
danny seymour My pleasure! Yes the blower motor is around!
Good job
Benjamin levi Thank you!!
Like the test light method of testing the wiring. I must admit I would of change the part first. Will add this testing method.
Alan Gaudry yeah it's always good to test the wiring before replacing the component!! I'm glad you like the video!!
Hello, your video is excellent thank-you for doing this. I do have a question that goes beyond the scope however. We have had this exact problem in my 2010 Tiguan since late 2018 once I purchased it; we did replace the blower motor resistor three times because it would stop very soon after replacement and didn’t work on any setting. The last (third time) it was replaced, it did not stop entirely, but would blow on setting 4 as your video describes. We have been limping along this way for a long while. However, suddenly, now, when the fan is turned on 4, within 1 minute it slows gradually then stops altogether. What might you suggest may be the problem in this case? Is it something beyond the blower motor resistor or fuse, since it’s now failed three times being replaced in a row and now it hardly works at all - or is it something beyond the resistor and or fuse? It’s running now about 1 minute on 4, then gradually slows and stops, and there is a sound that occurs once it starts slowing down. Thank-you kindly for your video and any advice you may have for us as we are cash strapped and would like to know what to expect for repair costs… we have other things that need to be repaired on this vehicle as well (hood release cable) and my husband is about to go in for total knee replacement. We can only afford to run one vehicle and the other one (Benz 350 GLK) is out of commission even if we needed to use it. Hopefully the Canadian winter leaves us soon, in the meantime… thanks again for any feedback you may be able to offer in this case! 🙏🏻😞👋🇨🇦
Tanis Gentle My Pleasure! since the resistor was replaced three times your problem might be a shorted blower motor or you may have a loose connection in the wiring! check your connections for corrosion and looseness!
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair thanks very much. Can you tell me please if there is a way my husband can find out if the blower motor is shorted, and where it is located, or if it is one of the wires? It isn’t not working at all though, it is now running on 4 - but it only runs for a minute then stops; after it’s rested for half an hour then it will start again and do the same thing… 🤷♀️ Thank-you again! ☺️
@@tanisgentle3576 the blower motor is under the glove box, did you install an OEM Resistor in it?
Would a bad blower resistor also not trigger the ac compressor? I have the same problem where the fan only works in the highest speed but at the same time no cold air is coming out.
@iskooobydoo No! you have 2 different Problems!
As soon as you described the problem, I started screaming, its the resistor! Not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing, lol!
Gail M Lol!! it's a good thing! it means you're ahead of the game!!
I have the same problem but when i put it on 4 the blower is making a loud clicking noise? Do i need a new blower?
@k9O3Fmobb Probably! make sure there is nothing stuck in the blower housing, like a piece paper!!
I have a problem with a 20q8 tiguan lsi where the ac works great on all setting and then all of a sudden just cuts out and after turning it off and of 20x times and a few hrs time it turns back on and works great but this happens all the time, I also just replaced the resistor and it worked only on high for a few minutes and turned off,.I put the old resistor back on and the same original problem persist, any advice? Thanks
Sammy Arias Test the blower motor, it might be cutting out and test it's ground also!
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair thank you for the reply, appreciate it. I'm ordering a new motor and testing the wires, will post an update.
@@sammyarias6878 My Pleasure!! Sounds good!
My 2012 Tiguan has this problem. I replaced the resistor but I get a strong buring smell from the resistor. So I replaced the blower and put another new resistor, still get a strong burning smell from the resistor. It's overheating, but I don't know why.
Yaze check your cabin air filter!
If it’s not blowing at all, and I can’t hear the fan so I replace the entire motor?
@trulydiamond check the resistor first!
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair thank you!
Hi my Tiguan blower motor works for a bit of time then it stops by itself sometimes it doesn't work
@denicemwape5533 your resistor might be going out, or the blower could be failing intermittently!
Sir PlyZ 1video fur best warning diagram software
israr,, auto,Election Thanks!!
First 😀
Garage 21 yeah!!
I changed my register but still no air blowing..Tiguan 2009
Joe Milne Test your blower motor!
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair I’ll try that thank you
