05 Nissan almera fan stopped working

maniac2003 · 07-07-2014 5:06pm #1

I really need some help I ahve an 05 nissan almera salloon and teh fan has stopped working does not fire on any speed. This is the "new style" that was controlled by up down arrows as opposed to the old pot dial which has a load of videos online for fixing but none of the are relevant for the centre console display almera models. Really appreciate any help with this as with the waether the way it is only realising how much I need/use the fan.

It is most likely the resistor pack.

Wouldn't it work on the highest setting if it way the resister?

George Dalton · 07-07-2014 7:21pm

On most cars yes but not with these Almeras, they won't work at all when the resistor goes.

maniac2003 · 07-07-2014 7:49pm

thanks have you a picture of it and where is it. located. will this be a garage job or can maniac fix this himself. thanks for all the replies.

George Dalton · 07-07-2014 7:54pm

not enough followed online video for. older models and could not find the elusive resistor pack did find a PCB where I was expected to find resistor pack. could really do wit a dig out. here please.

It's a while since I did one but it's somewhere up behind the dash accessed from the drivers footwell IIRC. I'll ask one of the lads for you in the morning if I think of it.

Hi lads anyone find any details about where this is hidden under the dash stripped have the dash off still cound'nt find it .
any help greatly appreacated .

Not sure of it's precise location in the car
but I do know these resistor blocks,as they are more commonly known,are only available through main Nissan dealerships.90 euro approx. plus fitting.
Ouch !

Here is a thread I posted before on similiar, might help. In the N15 almera (95-00) it's located behind the glove box, open the glove box and lift it up and it comes off.

Mine is a 03 model digital display (as in up and down arrow ).
have googled watched u tube none on this model .???????????????????????

scrap_man · 04-08-2014 12:56pm

if you reach over to the left of the clutch pedal you will find it, its a small box with 1 multi plug going on to it,

Hi ya · 04-08-2014 8:43pm

Thank you very much scrap man just went out to car to look and there it is staring at me .exactly were you said .
No to go and find one .Thanks again

Hi ya · 05-08-2014 5:55pm

just to let you guys know I took it out and resoldered all the contacts and is working perfectly.
Thanks again to scrap man .

had given up on this and just seen the reply. I'm very excited about this. when you say resoldered all the contacts is it just the board contacts or have you a picture that would explain it.

Hi ya · 13-08-2014 6:56pm

Hi Maniac what i done was removed it from car .then got the solder to flow on all the contacts that you can see at the top of the resistor pack .
put back in the car and was working fine .

OK that makes sense is it difficult remove I assuming its the white square box up to the left of the clutch?

got it out so just resolder all the joints now?

Hi ya · 14-08-2014 11:19am

Thats it maniac its a bitch of an angle to get a screwdriver at it .just get all the solder joints to flow .as in hold tip of soldering iron to solder joints to let solder flow around contacts .
pop it back in car and should be working .

maniac2003 · 14-08-2014 12:34pm

Ok so, am i right with where I've put the red lines for where the solder needs to go?

tried that no joy will go at joints again.

Hi ya · 14-08-2014 9:13pm

maniac just let the tip of your soldring iron heat up on all solder contacts until it melts .especially where the 3 pins come in from the block connector .make sure not to join any solder joints together .
nissan-navara.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=29268 put in the httpwww to find . found an image here of resistor i did not remove it from its housing just let the solder flow. i think its called dry joints what happens these resistor packs

maniac2003 · 15-08-2014 4:15pm

OK got hold of a working resistor and then put it in still no joy. had a look and no pollen filter in place top of blower motor had heaps of leaves debris in on top of it starting to look like the blower motor is cooked

Hi ya · 15-08-2014 4:24pm

Hi Maniac can you not check with a mutimeter to see if there is current going to it ,
maybe fuse relay .

Hi ya.
There is no current going to it. What next?

Waterson · 13-10-2014 11:18pm

Check fuse. If blower motor seized from debris then most likely a current surge might have blown it.

is the fuse located under the bonnet on passenger side?

Waterson · 14-10-2014 6:51pm

Can you apply a 12 V supply directly to the blower motor to see if it spools up?

anyone know anything about the relays?
