Video tutorial

Today, you will learn how to test the cabin fan of a generic car in simple steps. First, you should remove the fan, which is usually found inside the dashboard on the passenger side; once the electrical connector and the securing screws are disconnected, remove it from the car. At this point, get a multimeter and check the correct operation of the resistor by setting it to ohms: by placing the probes on the electrical parts, you will see if the fan draws current; if it does, it means the fan's resistor is functioning.

By connecting a battery, you can verify its operation.
