In this video, we can see how to replace the cabin fan of a Toyota 4Runner: first, we can obtain the replacement part, for example on E-Bay with the code 373749855478 at a price of 43.96 euros with free shipping. Changing it is very simple.

It is located in the upper part of the passenger footwell, on the right side, from which we remove the cover that is pressed in; we disconnect the electrical connector, and then with a Phillips screwdriver or a ratchet wrench, we unscrew the retaining screw located in the center, and remove the faulty part.

We place the new one in its place, secure it with its screw, reconnect the electrical connector, and put the plastic cover back in place.

And that's it.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
