The heater blower fan is part of the heating system in your car. It is a unit comprising of a motor that blows air into the passenger compartment. It does not just blow warm air when the heater is on, but cool air too (provided the heater is turned off of course). Moreover, it circulates the air through the cabin to ensure a continuous, fresh, supply of air.
Over time, the heater blower fan's motor can wear and fail. In many instances it should be cheaper to replace the heater blower unit completely than replacing parts individually (if at all possible). Sometimes a faulty heater blower fan can also be due to a bad electrical connection, for example, due to a connector that had to endure an inordinate amount of heat and has subsequently started to melt. In this case replacing the connector would suffice. That said, it is important that any issues are addressed as quickly as possible to prevent further damage.
Should you experience problems with the heater blower fan, then it is advisable to have the fan unit inspected and, if necessary, have it replaced. Seeing that the fan is especially prone to wear over time it should always be serviced as and when stipulated in the guidelines set out by your car's manufacturer.
The cost of replacing a heater blower fan depends on your car and what parts your car's manufacturer recommends using for the replacement. Find out what you could save by having a heater blower fan replaced by ClickMechanic, by selecting your car at the top of this page!
The heater blower fan's resistor regulates the speed at which air is blown into the passenger compartment by the fan, according to the input from the switches on the dashboard.
Over time, it is normal for the heater blower fan's resistor to wear due to extensive use. In some cases a short circuit might lead the fan to be stuck in one speed, when the fan does not work at all, it might be that it has blown a fuse.
Sometimes a faulty heater blower fan can also be due to a bad electrical connection, for example, due to a connector that was subject to an excessive amount of heat and has subsequently started to melt. In this case replacing the connector would suffice. That said, it is important an issue like this is addressed as quickly as possible to prevent further damage or inconvenience.
