ShortBus Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 So I have determined that the blower motor resistor is bad in my truck. But 130 bucks for this stupid piece of plastic with a plug really? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordmagg Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 (edited) The 03 blower motor resistor is on a VIN specific recall. Go to your nearest GM dealership and they will run your VIN and see if yours is part of the recall. For those of you that have already had the repair done AND you have your receipts, you can get a refund. My dad had his '03 repaired about a year ago and at the dealership it cost about $500 for him to get it done. He got a full refund from Chevrolet. This recall is only specific to the 2003 model with the manual temperature adjustment, not the digital one.

03BlkSS86 Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 BlackUTSSS is right, got my letter from GM the other day. Went to my dealership had it fixed while I was working. #5 setting hasnt worked for about a yr. Now everything is good. If you had the job done by a certified garage they will remburse you. If not then I dont think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordmagg Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 For all of you guys who get money back from Chevrolet from this recall. You can send me some Adams stuff in appreciation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortBus Posted June 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 i have the automatic temperature control so i am screwed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordmagg Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 That sucks. My advice would be to get it fixed as soon as you can. The reason for the recall on the manual temperature control was that it could cause a fire. I'd hate to see that happen with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortBus Posted June 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 i pulled it out so there is no chance of fire. Just wish i could find one in a salvage yard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbarnes Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 ive replaced a few for friends. go to your local salvage yard or try lkq.com or car-parts.com youll have to find a phone number on the websites because this part wont be listed but they WILL sell you one.
