    I have a 91' Accord and the heater fan simply stopped working, I checked the
    fuse by the engine bay compartment and it seems to be in tact. Haven't taken
    a voltmeter to it yet but the it looks alright. I live in Canada so of
    course this had to happen in the middle of winter. Does anyone have any
    suggestions as what to check other than the fuse, a relay perhaps, also not
    really sure where the fan blower motor is located. Hopefully I don't need to
    tear the dash just to get to the motor.

    Thanx in advance,
    Norbert

  2. Check the fan switch for damage and resistors that have heated up their
    solder joints. Worst case you can jumper the switch to run the fan flat out.

    Unplug the connector, remove three screws and the heater falls out in
    your hand (if the same as a '95) Hook up to 12 Volts to prove if it
    spins at all.

    While it's out, use an air hose to blow carbon powder out of housing.

    It's a start . . . . . Your fuse boxes should have indexes inside with
    the fuse names. If you have ABS there will probably be three fuse boxes.
