Blower motor shut off with no power

Well Thanks for the help guys, Im not going to give up I was just a bit
****ed that I was told what I bought (resistor) was the right thing
even for an ATC car,

I'm going to try the forum and put up a WTB cause the car-parts.com
didn't have anything like a blower motor control delay.

Now I know this is super jimmy rigged but hey I'm an electrician sort,
the resistor just regulates the voltage going to the motor hence making
it speed up slow down, what if I got a simple knob switch, wired it
into the positive/negative going into the blower motor control and then
put it with the blower motor, ran the knob to the dash and with a
simple mount, mounted it on. I know the ATC part wouldn't work but if I
cant get this part would that work?

Thanks for all the help again guys I really do appreciate it!

Actually you could - someone on dodgeintrepid.net (DI.net) would pay you
to swap parts with them. There are two wiring harnesses invovled in
the swap (either that or splicing in connectors), so it's not just
simple plugging in of different modules. There's a How-To on DI.net.
Three modules and two harnesses involved in the conversion.

Darn - I really can spell. "...good opportunity...your Concorde..."
Was up too late and in too much of a hurry.

I explained what to look for on car-part.com: "Temperature (Climate),
(underheater)" under the "Computer Box Not Engine" main categroy -
several show up for the years I mentioned - but because of the ambiguity
in the part name and description you do need to make sure it is the
right part by talking to junk yard before you buy it.

But going thru DI.net works too.

So should I expect more to replace other than this blower module? These
harnesses Im a bit confused about, I was just going to cut the wire and
splice a connector onto it

How the hell do you go about taking out the blower motor control dealy
on this thing? I took the passenger seat out for better access (really
helps by the way) but that thing seems to have grown onto the car and I
dont know how to get it off! Thanks again for your help Bill.

I've never done it. Go to the How-To linked from DI.net:
http://www.cis.umassd.edu/~u_sgeary/...ATCINSTALL.htm.

There are photos and descriptions. That How-To is to convert from
manual controls to ATC, but don't let that confuse you. The part that
shows the removal of the resistor mdule and installing of the Blower
Motor Control Module (in fact they call it the ATC Power Module - that's
where I picked up that name for it on my earlier posts - and in fact
that's what Chrysler calls it in the FSM but they call it the Blower
Motor Control in the parts lists) will show you how to get the old one
out and the new one in.

I think it's two screws and two conectors (the wire harness and the
blower motor).

So do you want to sell your bad ATC Control Module to me at a good price
since it's broken? I can probably repair it and use it in my '99
Concorde when I do the conversion to ATC.

If the control head is losing the display you are gonna have to replace the
control head before you do anything else. The Blower motor resistor and the
control head both will control the speeds of the motor.
Replace the control head and more then likely both problems will be
fixed.
It sounds to me like the control head took a dump and the blower motor is
in the default mode.

I just got my new one in today Installing it now
