Hi. I'm Mike from 1AAuto. We've been selling auto parts for over 30 years!
To remove this lower panel here that's over the blower motor, it just slides into some pins that are up here, but it is clipped into the dashboard. There's four spots. There's a clip here, a clip here, a clip here, and a clip here. You're going to use a plastic trim tool. You can get these from 1AAuto.com. It'll go straight up and push the clip towards the front of the car. I'll pull it down out of the dash. I'm going to go along and do this to all of them. So what I'm doing is, when I'm going up, I'm pushing this tab in like that and then pulling it down to unlock it, so I'm pushing it into the front of the car. It'll just pull right out of these pins. I'll pull this trim out of the way.
The blower motor is here. There is three threaded – well, there's three bolts. They do have a Phillips head screw in them, so I'm going to use that to remove it, but before I do that, I need to unplug the blower motor harness. You push in on the lock and pull that down. Move that aside.
You can use a large Phillips head screwdriver to remove the three bolts that have Phillips head screws in there, holding the blower motor, but it might be easier, if you've got access to it, to use an eight millimeter ratchet, eight millimeter socket and ratchet. It's actually going to go a little bit quicker because of the ratchet. We'll get this one loose. It's out, and this should just slide right out of the HVAC box. There's our blower motor. This also has a resistor built into it. It's inside of here.
Here's our old blower motor and resistor assembly. Here's our brand new one from 1AAuto.com. It’s got the same setup, same mounting tabs, same electrical connector. This should fit in the car and work great for you.
I'm going to slide our new one into place. This needs to go into the corresponding opening that's in the heater box, which is right up here. I'm going to get this in place. I'm going to lift it up into place, turn it so it lines up, and it slides right in. These are just self-tapping screws going into plastic, so once I feel them get tight, I'm just going to stop. I don't want to strip them out. That's tight. I'm just going to stop. I'm going to reinstall the plug. It locks in place.
To install the panel, I'm going to slide these two pins into these two openings in the back. I'm going to push these clips right back up into the dash. The blower motor and resistor is replaced.
