2003 QUAD CAB 4X4

HEATER BLOWER (FAN) IS NOT WORKING? WHERE IS THE FUSE FOR THE BLOWER LOCATED UNDER THE HOOD OR INSIDE THE CAB? 15 AMP FUSE? IS IT LIKELY TO BE THE FUSE OR IS IT MORE OPT TO BE THE MOTOR?

THANKS

Try your fan at all the different speeds. If some work and others don't, then it's your resistor panel.
It could still be your resistor panel even if none of them work (depending on where the break is) but you may not be able to tell unless you unbolt the blower fan and test for juice to the fan. I'm not sure which is easier, the blower motor to unbolt or the resistor pack to find.
If all else fails, read the fuse panel to find out if it's under the hood, or in the cab.

Good luck.

If it doesn't work at all, it's probably a blown ignition switch.

My heater blower would only work on High. I replace resistor block took about 10 minutes cost around $13 bucks. Its located inside cab on passenger side just in front of the outlet for air to blow on feet. Easy fix.

Has anyone tried putting a heat sync from an old PC computer chip on it to keep it from getting to hot and burning out?

Yes. I have. Then they came out with the redesigned resistor and I installed that one. No problems.

Here's some pics
