Blower motor package.
 
Does anyone know if an impeller (fan like thingy) is supposed to come with the blower motor I just bought? or do I have to take the old one off?

The pics Ive looked at show it with the cage, and I know theyre a pita to get off the old one (I tried, for shipping one. It didnt work)

you usually put the old squirrel cage on the new motor

The circlip can be a pita but it's doable. My replacement blower motor didnt come with cage.

I had to order the fan separately has no one could get it as a "package". I did tried to take the old fan out first. After playing with it for 30 minutes, doing some damages to it and almost breaking it, I said screw it!, and just got a new one. Now, I have a new blower motor, resistor and fan.

good info to know I'm about to order a new motor so might as well order a new cage to go with it as well

Yea haha, I got the little clamp part off and told my dad I was going to go on here and ask around. Went back upstairs and he already had it off and on the new motor. But thanks guys, I appreciate the help. I took some pictures of how to change it out and am thinking about doing a write up on it. But then again it was the easiest thing I have installed to date. I would do a write up for the motor and the resistor. Think I should throw it up under the write up section?

Irongrave 01-26-2011 03:09 PM

yes do a write up on it. I'm doing mine soon and always nice to see what some one else did before you jump into it

xj guy 01-26-2011 04:57 PM

Alright man, just check under the write up section in a day or two and hopefully I'll hae it up. If it's not just pm me and I'll guide you from there
