<VV> Blower Relay

[Bill Hubbell]

Technically the blower has only one speed (high). The two lower speeds are achieved by switching the current through resistors.  Clark's is technically correct when they say a relay is not "necessary", but it is a good idea to add one to the high speed circuit to protect the heater blower switch contacts. It is not necessary to use a relay for the lower speed circuits as the current draw is much lower already. 

The procedure and relay specs were written up in the Communique several years ago and were included in the Tech Guide. If I were at home I would look it up for you; perhaps another kind soul will do that, please?

Does anybody know of a specific heater blower relay that's compatible with 
the three speed Corvair blowers?  Knowing a NAPA or other part by it's ID 
would help in finding one.  I can always use three individual relays but 
since they make combination units it would be nice to find one.
