jgt Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I'm having an issue with my fan turned up to 4, it makes alot of noise and sounds bad. In low and med, the fan sounds fine, no noise. So it sounds like there's stuff in my blower motor fan. Has anyone cleaned this and how do I get to it? Do I remove the glove box to get to it. that's where the sound is coming from. thanks-julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94extreme Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 it sure was a pretty big hassle on my '94 to get to the darn thing.. i still have noise on the very highest setting but at least it's not plugged solid full of mouse house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver97ex Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I had the same problem in my 95 but it was in all fan speeds. I did have to pull out the glovebox to get at the blower motor. Then it is just held on by 3 screws. Mine was packed with crap, pulled it all out and quite as new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precise1 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I'll point out that the dashes of the 94-95 are different than the previous, so it is quite possible the jgt will have little issue accessing the motor in her 92... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unccpathfinder Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 it wasnt that bad in the 95 either...just have a stubby phillips head to get that back screw out and drop the whole fan motor out...it was tighter than the 87 but not that much worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgt Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 (edited) thanks guys, that link was very helpful. Hope my 92 is the easy year. update: did the heat resistor cleaning thing, added pix to that link, thanks. So after I assembled everything, I realized that I wasn't having burnt smell issues. Duh, should have cleaned the intake unit for junk and pulled out the blower motor. So it's still making the noise, I'll do it this weekend! Either way it's good to know it's clean and I won't be starting a fire should I EVER have to use the heater here in hawaii Edited November 23, 2008 by jgt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgt Posted November 23, 2008 Author Share Posted November 23, 2008 yep was a piece of plastic in the blower motor. No mo' noisy rattle at 3 and 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
