Detailed Description

Nissens part number 871180 is engineered as an OE-standard blower motor replacement for HVAC systems that require specific fitment. The motor is built with high-quality plastic materials, while the armature and carbon brushes are designed to support smooth, quiet, and reliable operation. This makes it a practical choice for Nissan Armada, Nissan TITAN, and INFINITI QX56 applications where the original blower assembly needs to be restored to proper function. This part cross-references TYC (e.g., 700174, 700197) for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Weak or inconsistent cabin airflow
• Blower motor noise during HVAC operation
• HVAC fan not responding at selected speeds
• Wear-related failure in the blower motor assembly
• Loss of proper air movement through the climate control system

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, rotation direction, and blower wheel diameter before installation. This blower motor is listed with a specific fit and should be matched to the vehicle's HVAC configuration, including applications with AC and the noted front-position listings. Confirm the part number 871180 against the original unit before replacement.
