  Q: How to replace the blower motor resistor assembly on Buick Rendezvous?

  A:

  You can begin the blower motor resistor assembly replacement by first removing the insulator from the right side instrument panel then disconnecting the blower motor electrical connector. Drop the mounting screws from the blower motor then unload it from the HVAC module. Detach the blower motor resistor electrical connector while keeping both forward blower resistor assembly mounting screws loosened since the holes are slotted. Unscrew the screw at the rear of the assembly and slide the blower motor resistor out of the HVAC unit. Reinsert the blower motor resistor assembly into the HVAC module assembly and install its rear screw before tightening all screws to 1.8 N.m torque setting. Plug the electrical plugs into the blower motor resistor while placing the motor back into the HVAC unit and fastening it using screws tightened to 1.8 N.m. Reconnect the blower motor electrical components then return the right side instrument panel insulator.

  Q: How to Service and Repair the Blower Motor Resistor on Buick Rendezvous?

  A:

  You need to start the blower motor resistor assembly replacement process by removing the right side instrument panel insulator followed by disconnecting the blower motor electrical connector. The first step is to remove the screws that secure the blower motor then extract the blower motor from the HVAC module assembly. You should disconnect the electrical connector from the blower motor resistor assembly as you carefully loosen the forward blower resistor assembly mounting screws because the mounting holes have slots. You must remove the rearward blower resistor assembly mounting screw to extract the blower motor resistor assembly from the HVAC module assembly. Position the blower motor resistor assembly into the HVAC module assembly and install the rearward blower resistor assembly mounting screw while tightening all screws to 1.8 N.m (16 lb in). Reinstall the blower motor into the HVAC module assembly before securing it with the blower motor mounting screws. Remember to also tighten all screws to 1.8 N.m (16 lb in). Afterward, connect the electrical connector to the blower motor resistor assembly. The last step involves connecting the blower motor electrical connector and replacing the right side instrument panel insulator.
