  • HVAC fan operation that stops working at certain speeds
  • Intermittent heater or air conditioner airflow
  • Failure of the original blower motor due to wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, mounting method, rotation, shaft dimensions, and wheel diameter before installation. This unit is flange mounted, uses a plug-in electrical connection, and is intended for vehicles with the listed fitment only. Inspect the blower housing, resistor, and connector terminals during replacement to confirm the rest of the HVAC circuit is in good condition.
