I'm having two problems with my heat/blower:
1. The blower only operates when I turn it on "high." From my research it seems this is likely to be the blower motor resistor and/or its accompanying connectors. Does this sound right? I am unable to do much with the truck now as it's single-digit temps outside at the moment, but would like to order the part so I can attack it if we get a warm day.
2. Yesterday, my heater quit blowing warm air. I had turned down the temperature selector switch from full-hot to medium-cold and then was unable to get hot air back after turning the temp back to full-hot. Is this likely to be the blend door and/or blend door actuator? I've read these can be problematic.
I replaced the heater core last fall, along with the entire cooling system, as part of replacing the engine. The AC is currently not functioning and is a project I hope to tackle in the Spring.
Appreciate the help. Like I said, it's too cold and snow covered outside right now to do much, but I'd like to get the parts so I'm ready when we get a warmer day.
