Hello guys quick question, I didnt use my car for 3 months as I was out of the country. I came back and I noticed my fans wont kick in in lvl 1 2 and 3. They will only work in lvl 4, regardless of me using the AC or not.
I dropped the glove box thinking I was going to check if they worked with out a filter or if I could hear a problem but it turns out my maxima 97 doesn't have filters in the cabin.
Any Idea as to why it would half break? It seems odd to me. I dont want to take any chances though if they fully break driving my car will be close to impossible in the winter.

 

Replace resistor.

I'll find the link and edit it in.
Might be in stickys.

 

blower motor resistor, or a VERY plugged up cabin air filter

 

'97 Maxima. What's a cabin air filter?

 

Blower motor resistor without question.

4th gen had no cabin filter, as my colleague above me points out

 

havent been in a 4th gen in forever

 

^ I feel you, I dropped the darn glove box looking for the air filter > > and then proceeded to molest the black box that sits there looking for the filter. 1 hour later I read in the forums there is no such thing. sigh.

Thank you guys for the reply!! I will go buy a resistor at pepboys tomorrow and have me some ac again.

 

Having the same issue as OP where fan will blow on 4 but no 1, 2 or 3. I have a 2003 Max. Do I need to remove the glove box to get to the resistor or is it accessible w/out removing the glove box?

Edit: nm, I see it below glove box.
