Where is the control module for the heater motor blower speed on a 1999 Plymouth Breeze?

Question 1
Where is the control module for the heater motor blower speed on a 1999 Plymouth Breeze?...  Blower does not work in any switch position other then high

Answers
1)   the switch itself - robert d

2)   dirty switch most likey if it works at all other contracts dirty can remove switch clean with can of air or contract cleaner most likey fix it

grease or lube on switch on back side collects dust loses contract ive repaired a few this way have a look at back side of switch where is slides each speed as a point of contract some are dirty i d bet - kelly_f_1999

3)   You are looking for the blower resistor. It is under the passenger side of the dash, to the left of the blower motor. If you follow the 2 wires from the blower motor, they will lead to the blower resistor. Good luck. - C-Tech

4)   This is a classic symptom of a bad blower motor resistor. The switch itself is rarely the cause of this condition.

The blower motor resistor is pretty easy to change out, it's mounted under the glove box at the very bottom of the A/C heater case, right next to the blower motor. It's held in by 2 screws and has 1 wire connector going to it. If you can't find it, or are unsure, ask the guy at the parts department counter to show you where it is. The Mopar replacement resistor should only be around $25 or $30 for your car.

To change it, all you have to do is unplug the connector, remove the 2 screws, and pull it out of the case. If you're just checking it, once it's removed look at the resistor coils inside, under the metal shield, chances are at least one of those coils will be broken where it mounts to the sides.

You should also check the connector and wires going to the resistor to make sure there are no burn marks on it as they will sometimes get burnt or melted form overheating.

To install it, simply put it back into position in the case, tighten the screws, and plug the connector back up.

If it needs a new connector installed, you may want to let someone else do that for you, especially if you've never spliced wires together. - Mark B

5)   agree with chrysler tech - wondering

Question 2
Thinking of buying a 2003 PT Cruiser.?...  Can anyone tell me about gas mileage? I've read that the car is too heavy for a 4 cylinder auto so it gets lousy mileage. Is this true? Is a 2003 too old for an inexpensive car like this, so it won't last much longer? Would anyone recommend buying a 2003 PT Cruiser with 102,000 miles on it? Anyone have a 2003 PTC that can answer my questions? Problems with them? Thank you in advance.

Answers
1)   That car is junk. Do not buy it. - Kenny

2)   no no no - sky6256gshdeudwdjdjgdjshdjhsjdhs

3)   DON'T! It's based on the Neon! Under powered, cheap materials, JUNK! Front ends constantly fall off them! Stick with a GM or Ford - Bob S

4)   I hate to say it, because in most cases Chrysler products are superior to other US comparable products by far, in my opinion.
But the PT is defiantly an exception.
What a pile of crap!
Please don't buy one, everything about them mechanically just svcks!!!!!! - Dave

5)   The truth about PT Cruisers: The front suspension bushings may be worn out. This will be evident in a test drive if you here a knocking noise from the front end. At 102,000 mile the timing belt will need replacement. If this has not been done, factor this into the price since it cost about 800 to replace with the water pump and assorted seals and tensioner. Expect mileage in the 20-23 city range and about 25-28 highway. Compared to other small cars this is low, but the PT Cruiser is larger and more comfortable and thus heavier than your average Civic or Corolla. Make sure all the electric items work as you would on any used car. The rear seats fold and remove so make sure the mechansism still works. If it is taken care of you will get plenty of use out of a PT or any used car. If it is neglected or abused, walk away. This goes for any used car. Good luck. - C-Tech

Question 4
2004-2006 Chrysler Sebring convertibles?...  Any opinions from owners? I'm thinking of buying one.

Answers
1)   JUNK! JUNK! JUNK! JUNK! JUNK! - Kenny

2)   I don't own one, but I have worked on a few.
I'll leave it at that because my dad used to always say that if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. - LeAnne

3)   i have worked for a used car lot for more than a decade.....over the past few years we have purchased numerous stratus' and sebrings,they are both equipped with the same under carriage(such as motor,trans,....etc) they have given our customers very good service,there is a downside to both the 4 cyl motor and the 6 cyl motor,with the 4 cyl they last a long time well past 100k miles,though if not properly maintained with oil changes the motors tend to give a little motor noise around or shortly after 100k miles,they keep going but to some this is a turn off,now the 6 cyl motor is a little more serious,if proper oil changes with recommended oil hasn't been performed then it has a bad history of cause them to lose oil pressure along with an early morning motor rattle,do your homework if buying used,we are pretty extensive with ones we buy cause it can be a costly mistake

also any chrysler car is odd about needing the trans. serviced to avoid long term problems..and thats not just sebrings that is all of them - wondering

4)   my sister test drove when when we were buying her a car. here's how it went:

she said it was really glitchy, and didn't have any leg room. (she's shorter than me)

but i'd go with what you want but i personally like this car:

Question 5
i got a chrysler concorde 1997.i was driving and noticed smoke coming under the hood. whats wrong with my car?...  
but thats not it.... it was coming from the radiator... do you think it could be the thermostat not opening up allowing the antifreeze to get to the radiator.... or one of the hoses busted?????
i already ruled out everthing beside the radiator. it wasnt blue, gray, or black smoke. it was white smoke. its nothing to do with the tranny or the oil or anything else. it has to do with the radiator. green stuff was also leaking out of the radiator and spraying all over my windshield.

Answers
1)   step one...open hood and LOOK
2 did you get oil/coolant/ may be a few drops on engine,,,did you check oil/coolant??? - pedro7of9

2)   wow this question is very familiar. ill tell you what i told i believe was you on a nother thread.

well you need to be real specific about this when you see the smoke you need to locate it and determine the smell also. mot always will oil burn blue really only when it is going out of the exhaust after being burned. it could be your coolant, power steering fluid, or tranny fluid could be leaking on something hot, aldo brake fluid could be leaking on something hot, i need to know what type of sound the car makes or if their are any ride handling changes as well. if none of the above it also could be that the engine could be too hot or the fact that you don't have enough oil and the existing oil is over heating its burning it off not through bad piston rings but rather you only have 1-2 quarts when you should have 4-5 and the oil is over heating.

here is what you do first check all of your fluid levels, engine off for the tranny you need the engine on, if they are all good than let it run for a few min if no smoke still than you need to drive the same way that you were when you first saw it, when you see the smoke pull over immediately and pop the hood to see the source (check the temp gage if its running hot you need to turn it iff so you wont lock up the motor). this is what a shop will do. once you know the source than you can fix it. i recomend take it to a shop that way you get a warrenty with the work, but if you know the source of the smoke you will knock off alot of time you will have to waite in the shop, and you will not have to pay for something that isnt broken - redneck_pride13

3)   could be your thermostat is out and/or your fan is not turning on when suppose to, based on your info you are overheating. - mrws303

4)   Sounds as if you have a leak in the radiator and the white smoke is actually steam from the green coolant being burned away as it reaches the outer surface.

Keep an eye on your temperature gauge and coolant level.

I suggest you have a reliable shop do a pressure test on your cooling system as soon as possible paying particular attention to the upper portions of the radiator. - Don't know everything !
