[Blower fan replacement]
Diagnosis and Part Selection Advice:
How did you know this part needed replacement? Why did you choose a certain brand/part number?
After checking resistor for continuity I spun fan blade with a pencil and it would run some. Tapped on fan with power on a few times and it would run OK, then next time in vehichle it wouldn't work again, tap on it and it would go.....sometimes. Brush type motor, probably has brush hung up on dirt or brush is worn out. Pain in butt to remove and try to repair, so order nice inexpensive part and "git 'er done". Part ordered today.9/29/09 we will see how well it works when it gets here.
Part Comments
What came in the box? Were additional nuts, bolts, sealant, etc. needed for the repair?
Repair / Installation tips:
Special tools needed? Have to remove other parts to reach this one? Any left-hand threads, sharp edges, messy fluids or other pitfalls to avoid?
