Fan Switch Works on High Only

Post by ric36012 »

The 3-speed fan switch on my '05 Vibe operates only on the "high" setting. Has anyone else had a similar problem? Thanks.

It's a somewhat common problem, you likely need a new fan resistor, which is an EASY fix, there is plenty of into here about it... Check the DIY sections stickied to the top of the pages.. Mine a 4 position, only works on med/high and high ATM...

I'm willing to bet it's the fan resistor, the rodent sounds like a freak occurrence. $7.16 at Toyota World...
