Blower motor intermitently works by rkhedlund

On my 97 Blazer, the blower motor will suddenly quit working while the anti-lock brake light will simultaniously light and the cruise will switch off. A half hour later, all three will switch back on. This happens once every five or six times I drive the car. Sounds like a broken wire making and breaking a connection but where would it be to be common to all three of these items? Any ideas?

97 have a known defect in the ignition switch which is the wiring and connector thru the column and that often causes many strange problems.

Nothing yet. I have a manual coming so I'll try to find a common source. If you find anything out, post it. Thanks.

right side rumble by shifty3y3d

I have a 98 Jimmy and when I get around 30 mph I get a rumble on the right side of the truck. It stops when I turn to the right like if I'm on the interstate but as soon as I straighten out it starts again. Does anyone know what it could be?

Check your hubs - sealed 1 piece bearings in the hub that may be failing. If you have a floor jack and jack up under the a-arm if a 4wd so CV axle does not bind you should feel/hear grating - jack it up anywhere on a 2wd as no CV.
If thats it about $150 for a hub and have to have an 18mm wrench for brakes, a 36mm for 4wd nut, and a 2 jaw 6" puller for CV if 4wd. Dirty job so get the cardboard out! 2wd is much faster!

2001 Jeep Cherokee Blower Motor Not Working by nvtitan

I have a 2001 Cherokee Sport and over the past 4 months the blower motor would cut in and out. Last week the motor stopped working completely at any speed setting. I spent several hours browsing the internet for simular issues and found some ideas as to how to troubleshoot. I was about 10 seconds from replacing my blower motor resistor before I had one last weak attempt to avoid the cost. I lifted the hoop and located the blower motor on the passenger side. I then firmly grabbed the electrical conector and wiggled it back and forth then pushed it down firmly to re-seat it. Now the blower motor works. Only time will tell how long this will correct the issue but it did save me $110 in parts that did not require to be changed.

Blower and Power Windows don't work by ncdave

I have a similar problem with my '97 Jimmy, but it only occurs when I start up. Usually everything works fine. But intermittently the ABS light remains on. While it's on the blower and power windows won't work. This lasts from a few seconds to over a minute. As soon as the ABS light goes off, the blower and power windows work. Sometimes during this the brake light also comes one. Sometimes the ABS light will flicker.
 
The power windows intermittently haven't worked for years, but this pattern just showed up a few weeks ago.
 
My dealer couldn't recreate the problem.
