Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Troubleshooting Blower Fan Only Works on HIGH

99M08 is the program number that covered this problem on my '98 in Jan. of this year. It should cover the '99s as well.

It takes about 10 min of your time & about 10 bucks to take care of the problem yourself by replacing the fan-speed resistor pack. The unit usually cracks (why?) & breaks internal connections.

Here's a How To change the resistor pack on the Mondeo site under common problems:-

The AC on my 98 SVT would only blow on high, then I received a letter in the mail saying it's recalled then I brought it to Ford and done. In fact the actual letter states " Ford is providing an additional coverage program number 99M07 to owners of certain 1995 through 1998 Model Year Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique vehicles" further down the letter " Ford Motor Company is providing additonal coverage on the heater blower switch,resistor and attached wire connectors" and that was straight from the letter. So if you have a 99 then I don't know if it's covered.

that is too weird, mine just did same thing today, i was drivin along and i realize that the fan aint blowin no more, only on high, i have a 98, i bought it privately can i still take it too a ford dealer and get them to replace it?? (the previous owner got it from a SVT dealer)

5 year 120 000kms! If your car falls in this area you should be covered! CAll Ford Kris!

Thanks again, everybody. I'll try the dealer again, although another trip to the dealer is always another chance for a f**k up. $10 for the resistor pack sounds good to me to avoid the dealer! If it's the switch/fuse/relay, that's a different story.
