Sleepwalker,

I have tested the 3 pin wires using a Multimeter.

(1) Test the middle pin with AC switch disconnected--->0 Volts & plugging the 3 pin wire to the Blower turn ON full blast
(2) Test the middle pin with AC Switch connected ----->12 Volts & plugging the 3 pin wire to the Blower turn ON full blast
(3) Test the middle pin with AC switch connected (a) Switch 1---> 11 Volts (b) Switch 2--->10 Volts (c) Switch 3--->9 Volts (d) Switch 4--->8 Volts (e) Switch 5--->5.5 Volts
(4) With Engine On, test the middle pin with AC switch connected (a) Switch 1---> 12.5 Volts (b) Switch 2--->12 Volts (c) Switch 3--->11 Volts (d) Switch 4--->10 Volts (e) Switch 5--->7 Volts

Whats odd is that the Blower keep blasting away with or without the AC Switch connected or disconnected.

But the Multimeter detected 12 Volts in the middle pin when the AC Swicth is connected but 0 Volts when discoonected?

find a known good blower regulator for testing purpose only to confirm.

that's the easiest way to cure headache.

Sleepwalker,

Do you know where I can find a new Regulator (reasonable price)? Since your diagnoses is the Regulator?

What I mean is a website where I can buy discounted, wholesale, 2nd hand or direct from manufacturer, perhaps 10-20% of Recommended Retail Price?
