Before my wife and kids droveour 2006 Kia Sportage that we bought in 2007 with 3500 miles on it (it had been a demo) 2000 miles to Kansas City and back we brought it in to get checked out because the blower motor was acting up on the Heater / Defrost. I noticed the wires leading into the blower were brownish looking (burnt). They checked it out and said it was fine. So needless to say halfwayto Kansas Citythe blower motor stopped working. Obviously driving almost 2000 without heat or defrost is dangerous and uncomfortable. When they got back Ilooked at the blower motor and tookoff the electrical tape and what I found wasthe two wires leading from the motor were discolored as if burnt and the yellow wire had a smaller gage wirewrapped around it no clamp or wire nut or anything just wrapped around an area that had been stripped from the main wire going into the blower motor.
