- 1996 Eddie Bauer Explorer
I have a 1996 Eddie Bauer Explore with an automatic temperature control system. The blower motor is either off or at full speed. The blower motor speed controller (not the standard resistor) seems to work as does the motor.
The fan speed dial (a potentiometer) on the EATC (electronic automatic temperature control) works, however when a certain level is reached (about three clicks from the top of the dial) the relay on the blower motor speed controller engages and the fan is powered at the full 12V. At the same position (of the dial) the blower motor speed controller's input wires have 10.8V (and the relay switches). Before the threshold level of the dial, the blower motor speed controller gets 0V and the fan gets 0V.
I suspect the issue is with the EATC, but I am not sure.
Does anyone know how this system works or what might be wrong?
