Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!
If there is a plastic cover here—ours may be missing, not sure, it's an older car. If you do have a plastic cover, it looks like it would clip into here, and then up here along the trim, just pull that down, get it out of the way, and get to your blower motor.
The blower motor is located under the glove box, right here in the passenger foot well. There is a guard over the plug. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws. Then I can unplug it.
So it's two screws: one on the front here, self-tapping screws into the plastic. Find the one that's in the back here. Just around the back of it. This plastic guard's coming down. Put that aside.
There's a lock here. You can push it in on the connector and unplug the connector. Wiggle it out at the same time. Unclip the harness, just pull it down, and put that aside. There's three screws that are holding the blower motor. It's the HVAC case. We use a T25 Torx to unscrew them. You could also use a flat bladed screwdriver, there's a slot for it. Torx is a little easier, because it doesn't want to slip out. Just unscrew these. I'll support it while I unscrew this one. Lower the blower motor right out of the case.
This is the original blower motor from our vehicle, brand new one from 1AAuto.com. It's an exact match. It has the same three style mounting holes and the same style plug. This will fit great and work great in our vehicle.
Going to line up this with this opening here. Put it right in place. Hold it up there. Get this screw started. It’s closest to me. And just repeat that for the other two. Plug our harness in, and clip it into place. Install this little guard up here. Get that one started. Get the back one started now.
