How To Test The Blower Motor Resistor (1991-1996 3.9L Dodge Dakota)

Blower Resistor Continuity Specification Tables

How To Test The Blower Motor Resistor (1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996 3.9L Dodge Dakota)

The following blower resistor assembly resistance values I got from a good working blower motor resistor assembly. You'll notice that I got a good continuity reading from all of them.

NOTE: You're probably not gonna' see the exact same results from your test. You'll probably see a ±2 Ohms difference and this is normal. The result that'll tell you that the blower motor resistor is bad is a no-continuity test result between any 2 terminals.

Terminal Terminal Resistance
4 3 0.1 Ohms
3 2 0.7 Ohms
2 1 0.8 Ohms
1 5 1.8 Ohms
4 5 3.1 Ohms
4 1 1.5 Ohms
4 2 0.8 Ohms
