Dazzevans Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Evening all I took my daughter out for a spin yesterday and discovered that the blower motor for the cabin heating has started squeaking. Has anyone replaced the blower motor, and if so how easy/hard is it? Ta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickLS7 Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Remove the cabin filter and try cleaning and lubricating your fan before you start changing parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it reasonably accessible from the frunk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickLS7 Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Yes, you can see it when you remove the filter. A bit more to it though if you decide to replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
some bloke Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 I replaced mine 2-3 months ago. Got a replacement from Douglas Valley. There's useful info here: https://sites.google.com/site/mikefocke2/hvacblowermotor More info than you'll need in fact. I think it took me about 30-40 min total. Be careful with the WD40 as it can make your cabin smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
