problem #1

Apr 272003

Astro Van 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 99,950 miles
Switch on dash board for rear air conditioner fan control was over heating in the high speed position. I tried to turn it off and could not and it was hot to the touch. I knew how to remove the switch while my wife was driving. The switch was over heating and partially melted the connector and destroyed the switch. I believe that if I did not disconnect the switch the possibility of a fire was there.
