Climate Control Brush Repair Document - Where did it go?
I was looking through the threads here on climate control repair (doing my due diligence before starting a redundant thread) and I found one thread that is extremely helpful, but the document about blower fan brush repair seems to be missing. Here was the path I took:
I started with WHunter's Climate Control Thread list here: Climate Control: I looked through and found a lot of great info in the second entry entitled, "Fix that Damn Climate Conrol!" - this one: http://207.210.95.34/~boostd/Climate/ In the article it says, "While you can buy a new motor for about $100 I find it much more appealing to fix it myself for $6 instead." The 'fix it myself for $6 instead' is a link, but the linked document is missing - here's the link: http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/showthread.php3?threadid=42145 Does anyone know where I can find this document? I have this exact problem and I would LOVE to fix it myself for $6 if I could! A new blower fan is now $135 on eBay - sans installation of course, so I would like to fix it for less since I've had to spend quite a bit of money on the car recently! Many thanks!!

I looked at replacing the brushes but my blower motor's commutator was so worn that it wasn't possible. Instead, I replaced the motor. The plastic fan presses on and off fairly easily. See this link:
How to remove the fan blades from the blower motor? You can get the blower motor for $83.20 from ******** Arizona (http://www.***************). Lots more info here, search "blower." Installation is trivial -- requires a screwdriver! Jeremy
