1994 Honda Accord Electrical Problems
 

I have a 94 honda accord ex. The interior light always blows it fuse and now the condenser fan (which gives me heat, air and defroster) fuse blows too. I am thinking there is a short somewhere but I am not sure of how to test or locate the problem. Any leads or help is appreciated.

I'm thinking the two are not related. Heat right now is important so let's start there. I'd test the blower motor first, see if the motor has shorted out inside.

Condensor fan is the driver's side cooling fan for radiator. It is likely a defective motor. Unplug the motor connector and see if fuse does not blow. Motor connector is not easy to access! You may have to pull the under body dust shield to access from beneath.

If condensor motor is bad, you can drive (no AC use) until you can buy a replacement and install. Check ebay for a replacement motor to install on your fan/frame. Fairly inexpensive, probalby $30-$50.

good luck

I was going with the blower motor (inside the car that pushes air out the vents) based on the above.....

'94 Honda Accord LX with same problem
 

Hey,

Just wondering if there's any resolution to this problem because I have a similar situation. Perhaps it's just coincidence. But my Honda continuously blows the fuse for the interior light also, while at the same time, I just started having issues with the blower motor.

Any others experience the same seemingly unrelated symptoms?

Cheers,
Jim

What issues are you having with the blower? Does it not work at all or something else. Does it sometimes work then just stop, does the fuse blow when it stops.

So it's not the blower per se with which I am concerned. I suspect either the resistor or the motor itself is going, and I can swap them out (once it's warmer outside). Also the blower motor circuit fuse does not blow.

But the fuse on the light circuit blows soon after replacement; and, it seems to me it may have started sometime soon before the problem with the blower started. So I'm wondering if the two MIGHT somehow be connected in a way I don't understand.

If I put a new fuse in the light circuit and DO NOT USE the blower, would that tell me if the two are related?

Hope that help explain my quandry and line of thought...cheers.

Try unplugging the wire harness from the blower motor. Does the fuse blow if you turn on the blower switch?

Then try unplugging the speed-control resistor & try again. Then the blower speed-control dial...
