  Q: What are the specific procedures for removal and installation of the rear blower motor Blower Control Switches on Dodge Ram 2500 Van?

  A:

  You must use special methods to remove and install the rear blower motor switch when the optional rear heater-A/C unit is fitted to the model. Remove the negative terminal of the battery first and disconnect it. Once the care is done, take off the switch plate from the instrument panel. Turn the illumination lamp socket counterclockwise to detach it from the switch, then pull the knob off the blower motor switch stem at the front of the accessory switch plate to remove the switch. Slide a thin-bladed screwdriver between the accessory switch plate and the side of the motor switch housing to release the two clip-style fasteners from both sides. Position the switch for the rear blower on the tool's back panel, make sure it is even and press down firmly to get the switch snap clip retainers into place. Put the knob onto the stem of the rear blower motor switch, making sure the flat in the knob lines up with the flat in the stem. After that, reinstall the illumination lamp socket to the back of the same switch housing. After that, place the accessory switch plate into the instrument panel and attach the negative battery cable.

  Q: How to service the rear blower motor switch (Blower Control Switches) equipped with the optional rear heater-A/C unit on Dodge Ram 2500 Van?

  A:

  Service of the rear blower motor switch, only required for models with the optional rear heating and air conditioning unit, begins with isolating the battery negative cable from the circuit. Following that, unbolt the accessory switch plate where it is attached to the instrument panel. Turn the lighting socket in the opposite direction to separate it from the switch backing, then take the rotating knob off the motor switch stem at the front of the switch panel. Pull the sides of the accessory switch plate gently with a small screwdriver as you work to release the two snap clips on both sides of the rear blower motor switch housing. Place the rear blower motor switch onto the rear of the accessory switch plate, hold it in place and gently press until you hear it click, ensuring all switch clip retainers are completely held. Secure the knob on top of the rear blower motor switch stem so that the flat sides are matched up. After that, connect the illumination lamp socket to the switch housing behind the rear blower motor, mount the accessory switch panel back to the instrument panel and lastly connect the negative battery cable.
