Burn smell when I set the heater blower to #3, SolvedSolved

Ford Mustang 2006 mustang gt 117650 miles
Burn smell when blower is on #3. I already changed out the blower motor, resistor and pictail connector wire. I recently replaced the Relay mod for the blower motor but I have not evaluated the issue for improvement yet. Is there any other suggestions that I can consider before replacing the Resistor again? Please advise.

I'm still 'not sure' if I fixed the issue yet, but so far I haven't detected any new burn smells when switched to 3. I think the Relay was the best fix of all, but no one even suggested that as the remedy. I spoke with many experts before acting on it and only spent $12. On the replacement and installed it myself. Shop charges of $150. Were avoided.

Car will not start

Ford Mustang 2003 GT/4.6l 12576 miles
I was driving and all day and i cut vehicle off and when i went to start the vehicle it act like it was going to start it was like a quick vrrgh then went quiet my car is a stick manual transmission so i pop the clutch and the car started. So i figured it was the starter so i went out and purchased a new starter and put it on, and when i went to go start it same thing nothing and yes i put the starter on correctly. I check all fuses and there all good now i can't tell if relay is good or bad because the relay is all black. When I put the key in and turn the key all the lights on the dash come and everything but at that last turn i get nothing ,so I'm asking what could it be.

It is the clutch switch, when u push it in, does not fully put down the safety switch, I taped two pennies on the back of mine with black tape and it has never had that issue again

Or you could reset the switch all the way back out and works perfectly again.
