2002 pontaic grand prix fan motor

Scott, it is a resisitor. It is supposedly near the blower motor. I will look tomorrow bc mine is out lso on my 2002. You have the GT or GTP?

That is funny! mine wife 2002 Sunfire also failed. Bought a new resistor module from GM (A ceramic thick film board with resistor on them burnt) and installed it this weekend. On 2002 Sunfire, it is beside the blower in the cabin on passenger side.

Yeah yeah, you we're supposed to check on that months ago for me (my 2000 GT is doing the same damn thing), get on it already! Well, it's actually finally above 45 deg here, I'm going to climb under there tonight and check it out too. It's been too cold and snowy for me to feel like doing anything.

sorry about that...been pretty busy. its next to the blower motor

I took the easy way out and had the local garage do it this afternoon. The thing would only work on #5. I'll let you know how much $ when it's done.

I have the same problem on my Grand Am, 2000. The fan only works on 3,4, and 5. I have had a water leak that got into the fuse boxes causing rust and corrosion. This has knocked out a few electrical things: Keyless remote, lock button on the doors (the unlock part still works though), had to pull the fuse for the fog lamps as they would come on in a rain storm. Same thing for the trunk, found it open after it rained. Now I have two zip lock freezer bags around the fuse housing units. It actually blocks the water from hitting the fuses and causes it to go directly onto the floor mat/side of car near hood release. You really want to check this out. Pontiacs are notorious for leaking water.
