    I have a 98 pete 379. My heater/ac fan does not work on high. Is there a resister for that fan or is there something else? Could it be the switch?

    Thanks

    I would check power coming from the switch first in the high position. The fan power bypasses the resister in high. Obviously the fan is good and the wiring is good or you would have no fan at all. It's been awhile since i've gotten to play with this part of the pete wiring but i hope this helps.

    There is a resistor just above the blower motor in the passenger dash behind the glove box, but like kustom said, on high, it's full voltage to the fan and bypasses the resistor.
