Need to replace my blower motor on my 850 (w/o climate control) since it's making a lot of noice. Anybody can recommend a company where I can purchase a cheap reliable replacement unit besides FCP or IPD? I know I have to replace the resistor at the same time. Any video links for step by step replacment would be appreicated.

 

i have seen some videos on youtube for this, and yes, mine makes a hellatious noise at times too, but it has stopped for the time being, it does notr seem to be a big job to replace, it is basically in behind the glovebox, just check out youtube. and where i found blower motors the easiest was on ebay...

 

Thanks for the info. Appreciate your reply.

 

To access blower: Remove glove box cover, hinge screws#25 torq screws. & using thin screwdriver or like ,slip plastic hanger from each side of cover. Put a bag tie on each to keep them from slipping up and back thru dash. Remove screws securing glove box liner and carefully pull out , watch glove lite. working thru glove box opening, rmove wiring harness from screwss. Don't get another blower untill you have checked your old one. trash in squirrel cae can cause noises. Bench test blower with 12 volt dc supply. Be sure to secure blower to bench or car floor mat since blower can kick when energized and break plastic squirrel cage. Sometimes a little oil will cure noise.

 

thanks!! i will use this if mine starts making noise again!!! appreciated!!
