Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the blower motor resistor on this 1996 Chevy Tahoe. The items you'll need for this are a new Blower Motor Resistor from 1AAuto.com, flat blade screwdriver, 7mm socket and ratchet, and a pair of pliers.
Start off by opening your glove box and pushing in the sides and pulling it down, then unhook and pull. Next, you want to remove this two 7mm bolts. I'll just fast forward as Don does this. Now, using a pair of pliers, just push the tabs on the clips at the bottom of these harnesses and push them up and out of that bracket. Now, press the tabs on the top of the harnesses and disconnect them. Now, pull down the bracket and on the top of this relay, just push the tab and pull it free.
Your harness for your blower motor resistor is right here. Just pry back on the tab and pop the harness up and off. Just set that aside, and your resistor is held in with two 7mm bolts. I will just fast forward as Don removes both of those. Once those are removed, you can pull your resistor up and to get it out, you're going to actually have to rotate it upside down. Just keep working it around until it's completely upside down and then pull it forward and then down and out.
Take a new blower motor resistor from 1A Auto and just push it back into place. You want to make sure you don't damage any of the coils and just very carefully lower it back into place. Just again, make sure those coils are okay and that none of them are touching each other. Replace those two 7mm bolts. Now, reconnect your resistor harness. Replace your bracket and reconnect that relay and then take your two harnesses and push both of them back down into the bracket, and replace those two 7mm bolts that hold the bracket into place. Now, reconnect those two harnesses, and then take your glove box, put those hooks back onto those bars. Push the sides in and push the glove box back into place. You're all set.
We hope this helps you out. Brought to you by www.1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the Internet. Please feel free to call us toll-free, 888-844-3393. We're the company that's here for you on the Internet and in person.

Great Replacemennt blower
Works as it should. Everything in the right place.
★★★★★May 2, 2024
Working great.
Working great. Fit perfect and easy install. My old Tahoe is blowing air like it did when it was new. I also cleaned out the condenser while I had the blower motor off. It would be a handy idea to make a package that includes coil cleaner as an added option. Looking forward to summer now.

Noisy Part but Great Service
The part arrived quickly. I installed and it was making a whiney motor noise. Reported to 1A and they very quickly issued a refund. Great service. Probably just bad luck with the particular part I received but wound up going AC Delvo instead.

Great Replacement for 1997 GMC Sierra
I bought this to replace a dying blower motor in my 1997 GMC Sierra 1500. Replacement was simple in and out, fit like the original. It works great and is much quieter than I expected. Ordering was easy and delivery was fast. Have always been happy with the parts from 1AAuto.
