Blower Motor Control Module question:

[705sho-off]

My heater refuses to shut off even though it reads "off" on the display. After reading a few threads on this board, it seems like the BCM module is the cause of the problem.

Now. Will a normal Tauras BCM work on my SHO?

Because I know that being a SHO any auto parts store will want thousands of dollars for a new one, when I know auto wreckers are filled with old bunk Tauras wagons.....cheap is the way to go right?

thanks guys

The ones in the SLO should be the same.

ok thanks man.

Now another question, what the **** does it look like?

I popped out my glove box to be greeted with millions of miscellaneous wires and such.

I have a suspicion it is the little black box about 2" X 4" on top of what looks like the vent??

It has a long serial number on it, and one bolt (I think, it is dark out there!)

am I on the right track or should I start ripping out random things?

hahah!
yeah like thats a good idea!

help appreciated!

It's right behind the glovebox, mounted into the bottom of the blower motor housing, with a harness and a vent hose connected to it. There's a long white label on it that says "variable blower control module" in the first sentence.

FWIW, I'm pretty sure this module will only be in Tauruses & Sables that have ATC (auto. temp. control). If the car has knobs, it won't have the module.

Do a search on the blower control. Someone recently posted pictures with great detail.
