The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving 5 mph, he noticed that the heater/cooler had become inoperable.

Upon removing the plastic cover for the internal components, I discovered that the module going to the fan and the plug were melted together. Also, the wires on the wiring harness going to the module were melted to the point that the wires were exposed and shorting across to one another.
