Fan motor problem(I think)
Recently my A/C has not been blowing. You can put on high and it will blow very little or not at all. It won't blow on vent or with A/C on. But once in awhile it will blow decently. So I do not believe it to be a fuse. What do you all think the problem could be? A problem with my electronic AC or the actual fan motor? The motor has not ever really made any noise like i've heard they do when they go bad. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! :seeya

A/C in Feb??? oh, florida... :rolleyes:
I would start with the blower... it might be the programmer, too... but I would start at the fan...
you say there is not a lot of air, but is there a lot of noise?
if there is a lot of noise and not a lot of air, you might have a screwed up bit of duct work.

Usually the brushes wear down until they don't make contact with the commutator and won't run, and they don't make any noise while this happens. Fortunately you can unplug the motor and jump 12v to the motor wires and see if it runs. If it does, its the controller. If a fuse is blown , the motor will not run at all ever! Try jumping 12v to the motor.
