    Aux fan blew new resistor in less than 10 minutes?

    Hey guys the Aux Fan on my car has never worked so decided to replace the resistor. Which initially fixed the fan, as soon as i turned the A/C on the fan spun to life and the A/C blew colder than usual. But i got back from the test drive and i noticed that when i stopped the car the Aux Fan was no longer moving. Is it possible that in the less than 10 minute test drive the new resistor failed?

    Check the low speed fuse.

        Good to hear. I leave mine jumped all the time. Just remember to upgrade the low speed fuse to 15a. The wiring is fine.

          yeah i did, it gets over 100 degrees in Ca in summer so more cooling can't be that bad
