2012 Hyundai Veloster Heat Issues. Sign In

So I have a 2012 Hyundai Veloster, 1.6L DOHC GDI Motor with just above 60k on it. I have no heat, the dial that controls the speed of heat/AC does nothing. I did a little digging around yesterday and noticed my Resistor was all nice and rusty crusty, then my Co Worker, slim, took a quick peek at it and came to the conclusion that my Resistor is not getting enough ground, so I spliced a wire into the ground wire, grounded it off, then spliced a toggle switch into that wire so I can turn it on and off, and it works for the time being, should I take a further look into the blower motor, connections for the heat/AC controls, im not sure how to go on with this. Im not a diagnosing electrical type of guy.


EDIT: I did add a 12 inch subwoofer, which I had to wire up a input line converter, I think its called, for RCAs since my OEM head unit does not have RCA ports. I wired it up to the OEM Amplifier that's underneath the passenger side front seat.

Thanks.

The ground is what the circuit uses to switch on/off and select speeds.

You need to fix this right. It's likely just a bad resister which is cheap. If you keep up this Fintstone style wiring you could find yourself doing serious damage.

I did put a new resistor in, does nothing.

That's why you test things before replacing parts. You have to test for ground signals arriving from the switch at various speeds.
