AFTER HEAVY RAIN EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF WATER POOL INSIDE VEHICLE. DRAIN PLUGS HAVE BEEN CLEANED OUT MULTIPLE TIMES. ALTHOUGH WATER CONTINUES TO LAY INSIDE THE TRACK OF THE MOON ROOF AS WELL AS DRAIN ONTO THE FLOOR AND SOMETIMES ONTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT (DEPENDING ON HOW THE VEHICLE IS PARKED). BASED ON THE FORUMS REGARDING H3'S THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. WHY HASN'T GM DONE ANYTHING TO RESOLVE IT??? *TR

THE BLOWER ON MY 2006 HUMMER H3 STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND WE SMELLED A BURNT PLASTIC SMELL WHEN THE BLOWER STOPPED. THE SMELL EVENTUALLY WENT AWAY, BUT THE BLOWER NEVER WORKED AGAIN. I FOUND THAT THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE FOR NOT JUST HUMMER OWNERS, BUT OTHER GM VEHICLE OWNERS. THE RESISTOR AND PLASTIC CLIP WERE MELTED TOGETHER AND WHEN DISCONNECTED, FIRE DAMAGE WAS EVIDENT. THIS RESISTOR FOR THE AC BLOWER IS LOCATED RIGHT UNDER THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT AND LUCKILY NOTHING FLAMMABLE WAS CLOSE TO THIS WHEN IS BLEW WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I ALSO HAVE PICTURES OF THE DAMAGE AND SUBSEQUENT DANGER THIS ISSUE POSES. OTHER POSTS OF PEOPLE SEEING THIS ISSUE.

ON OCTOBER 30TH I SMELLED A FAINT SCENT OF SOMETHING BURNING INSIDE MY VEHICLE, BUT COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. NOVEMBER 1ST WAS OUR FIRST COLD MORNING SO I STARTED MY CAR, AND HAD NO HEAT. THE SYSTEM WASN'T BLOWING, BUT THE HEATER A/C CONTROLS WERE LIT UP. SINCE I AM A MECHANIC, AND HAVE KNOWLEDGE I WENT RIGHT TO THE FUSE BOX IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE FUSES WERE OK. I THEN WENT TO THE BLOWER RESISTOR PACK WHICH IS LOCATED UNDER THE GLOVE BOX. THE ORANGE POWER WIRE IN THE HARNESS WAS BURNT UP PRETTY GOOD, AND THE TERMINAL MOLDED INTO THE HARNESS PACK WAS ALSO BURNED UP PRETTY GOOD. I THEN WENT ONLINE TO GOOGLE THIS PROBLEM TO SEE HOW COMMON IT WAS, AND WAS SURPRISED TO SEE HOW MANY COMPLAINTS THERE ARE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, NOT JUST REGARDING THE HUMMER LINE, BUT WITHIN GM VEHICLES ITSELF. I CALLED THE SERVICE TECH WHERE I HAVE MY WORK DONE, AND HE WAS VERY FAMILIAR WITH THIS FAILURE. *TR
