2000 Ford Escort Finesse Heater/Blower Problem

[joesweetmore]

As winter is here i am in hell on a morning, the blower motor does not seem to work as no matter what you do to the switch, whatever setting you put it on the fan doesn't kick in, the heater doesn't seem to work either as i am constantly freezing. The fuse is OK and i presume that the switch is also OK as you can push it in and the air con seems to come on, only the fan at the front and nothing else (noticeable). What could the problem be with the heater/blower and how may i go about fixing it. Thanks

if it isnt the climate control set up- have you checked the resistor block above the passengers feet- will either be located into the blower housing or bolted onto bulk head- wire often melt also

kind regards

I have exactly the same problem as you had with your car, did you manage to fix it. If so what was it.
any help would be well appreciated.
