re-setting the blower motor
The blower motor of the ventilation system is one of the power hogs in my car.
on setting #1 its like 2.5 amps,
#2 its like 3.5 and by the time u get to the higher #'s its sucking like 7-8 amps.
the higher settings are almost never used, and very often I don't need the full power of setting #1, all i'd need is a tiny bit of power ..just enough to bring the heat into the car and 1 amp would do this...
i'd like to have 2-3 settings that are inbetween the factory "off" position and the factory #1 position, and the same for between the factory 1 position and the factory 2 position.
I'd rather leave the existing motor in place, and perform this mod by replacing the electricity controller/switch that goes to the motor, and the knob.
I'm wondering what the best way to do this is....
I'm sure it wont take me long to locate the factory motor controller, but what would I put in it's place?
I'm having some brain fog as to whether this should be done with a pwm or a voltage adjuster of some sort....
if anyone can shed some clarity as to the best way to do this I'd be very appreciative...
