Default AC and heat work on settings 3 and 4, but not on 1 and 2

I also have a 2002 accord se with a new problem (AC and heat work on settings 3 and 4, but not on 1 and 2). I took it to midas and they checked it an said the blower motor resistor needs to be replaced. They said the part costs $200 and the total would be $300. I did some research online and found that you can fix it yourelf. The blower motor is under the glove compartment on the passenger side, but the pictures were from a 98 accord. Does anyone know if the blower motor is in the same location for the 02 accord? I found a new blower motor resister much cheaper on ebay.

thank you soooooo much. The part is only $52. Midas was going to charge $200 for the part and $100 for labor. I looked under the glove compartment and its just 2 screws holding the blower motor resistor. So it should be pretty easy. Thanks again!

You guys are Fantastic!

This forum is Fantastic!

It's listed under the heater/electrical as the blower motor resister!

It solved the problem?

Thanks, I also have a 2002 accord that had the transmission problems @ 60,000 miles, the car now has 155,000 on it now and is still going strong. My 1 and 2 settings also don't work, so thanks for letting me know how to fix mine as well

That was it! The blower motor resistor. It took me all of 20 minutes to replace it!

The Haynes Repair Manual confirmed it too!

Ebay had a used one for $30, online for $78, and the dealer had it in stock for $90.

CRaVer YOU are an ACE!
