Heater Motor
« on: October 20, 2008, 09:44:34 PM »
Hey every one.
Here is a question for you all. I have a 95 XJ and I keep burning out heater resistor bridges the last one lasted les then a day. I picked up a new fan thinking that is the motor drawing to much amperage thru the bridge. The fan would start scramming and then nothing back to off or high. I though I would ask on her before I change it and waste the time and money. Has anyone been down this road? Should it be the motor or could something else be involved?
Why does your Jeep say Toyota on it?
