Blower motor (consistently) inconsistent!
Hi all,
I’ve just read through a ton threads on multiple forums and haven’t seen this exact issue: 2010 f150 Lariat SCrew, auto hvac controls. A month ago, my blower stopped blowing completely. Fuses and relay seem fine, so I replaced the blower motor but no change. I then replaced the blower motor resistor, and that seemed to fix it. The blower was blowing like normal, controls working properly, AC blowing cold. Then, after about a week, a new issue started. The blower blows hard for about 2 seconds, then shuts off for about 10 seconds. On for two, off for ten, very consistently, over and over. I have an hour daily commute and it does this the whole time. I thought it was a faulty new resistor, so I got a new one and replaced it again. Same exact issue, only this time it never worked properly for a week first.
Anyone experience this? Any suggestions?
thanks

Yes, it’s controlled electronically. Sync system with auto hvac control. Actually just discovered today that it seems to work fine when I use the touch screen climate controls to manually set it on a middle fan speed. Does the intermittent thing again as soon as I go back to auto or manually set it on the highest fan speed. I’m thinking this brand replacement blower resistor is just not a good compatibility.
