How to replace the cabin fan

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Blower motor

Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to replace the cabin fan, which is usually located on the passenger side. In this case, it is even visible; just remove the three screws.

The YouTuber suggests marking the position of the fan with a marker so you can put it back in place later. The resistor is right underneath and secured with two screws: remove it by unscrewing the two lower screws. (Remember that if the resistor no longer works, the fan will only operate at maximum speed).

A check was done with a multimeter in Ohms to see if the fan motor was still efficient, with a positive result. However, the resistor needs replacing.

Replace the resistor with the new one and reassemble the fan, then perform a functionality test; now the fan works at intermediate speeds as well. You can reassemble everything in its place.

Operation completed.
