- 2002 Explorer Sport Trac
I am having some problems with my climate control in my 2002 explorer sport trac. On fan settings 1,2, and 3 there is no air coming from the vent. However, on the high setting, 4, they both work just fine. I read that this can be related to the blower motor resistor so checked that out. It was a very tight squeeze but I managed to get it out of the back of the blower housing under the hood. I inspected the resistor and the wires that connected to it. (detail: the resistor I found was one with several coils and an electrical resistor, not one of the card-shaped ones I have seen online). The connectors were slightly tarnished but certainly not enough to prevent conduction between the surfaces. The resistor itself also was very slightly rusted in couple spots but did not appear to be in bad shape to me at least. Should I still just replace the blower motor resistor to fix this? Or could there be something else that is causing this problem? I would appreciate any insight into this issue before I starting buying parts to fix it. Thanks in advance.
