I know on slightly earlier models of Explorer's the blower motor and resistor pack were accessed from under the hood - nice 'n easy to get to, no crawling under dash or dropping glove box to get to. Open hood and look on fire wall passenger side, should see blower motor, resistor pack is either right on top of motor or a big harness connector on the firewall, similar to how it is on other Ford trucks. Look up your part online and then you'll know what to look for under the hood. Just remember it will be in the immediate vicinity of the blower motor.
Ok I'll check. I already bought the part, but so for no luck locating its location. Only thing I could find close online was for F150s
Alright I figured it out. For everyone else on a 2014 Explorer it is not in the engine bay or behind the glove box. It is under the kick panel on passenger side.
Is there a more precise location you can give?
My climate control won't turn off. Why did you have to replace yours? Could mine be the resistor?
I have a 2014 Ford explorer sport. My blower stopped working altogether on the front environment. Yesterday morning I replace the resistor, which by the way I found underneath the Glovebox. I soon as I put the new resistor and it started working immediately and it works great all day yesterday and all day today… And then tonight it just stopped working again… Does anybody have any idea what would cause this?
Did you find a solution? mine is doing this as well! Thanks!
