Dude you are a life saver! I live in Florida and was dying of heat stroke. Turned out to be pretty easy with your instructions. Great video!
First of all thank you! Very useful video for anyone who can hold a screwdriver and a drop of common sense. I only watched the first few minutes and it only took me less than 15 minutes and I got my heater blowing like a hurricane! Thx again. From Russia with love.
Thanks for watching, I'm glad the video was helpful!
1,000 times thank you. Watched this last night, got the blower/rotor at O'Reilly this morning, and saved myself a pile of money (and 2 hours of reading my mechanic's 5-year-old magazines).
Awesome. Glad to hear you got it done!
Thanks for the video! Had a horrible dead animal smell coming from my ac vents. Took the blower motor out, and there it was, dead mouse. Very useful and easy to understand video. Thanks!!
i found a nest in mine, no sign of the mouse that made it lmfao
If only everyone could intruct people to do something as good as you can. Thank you! I had no problem replacing it
He is the best Ive ever seen. Im a youtube junkie so ive seen em all.
Todd thanks for putting this video together. I don't think I would have attempted it without it. Turned out to be on the easy side. My problem ended up being a mouse nest above the filter which was rubbing against the fan cage making a noise. With 280,000 miles on the Corolla I changed the blower motor since I already had everything opened and we are heading into winter. You saved me a couple hundred bucks! Thanks again.
Glad to hear you were able to get it taken care of easily!!
8mm works perfectly to remove screws holding blower in place. Took me total 15min to change blower. Super super easy. Remember to wiggle electrical connection to remove from blower, don't yank or it might break. Thank you soooo much for this video :) helped a lot! P.s. cost $40 for blower/motor unit on Amazon. Also replaced breaker for blower, $10 Amazon.
Thanks for the feedback!
Thanks to your video I saved $130 in the part not including labor. I had to become a contortionist but it was worth it.
Thanks again
I'm happy to hear you got it done yourself!
The reason I'm watching this video.
I was changing the cabin filter in my 04 Corolla when a bunch of shells and seeds from a long gone rodent fell into the fan.
It's unusual that I fix something without breaking something else.
Thanks for the help.
Hi and thanks for watching! I am glad the video was helpful.
Such a wonderful FYI. My heater blower quit working . I went to a salvage yard and practiced on their car . I easily removed the blower and was charged 8.00.
Before I changed the blower motor I found that I could access the blower cavity through the air filter slot. I found enough grass stuffed in the filter cavity to fill the cage. I removed the grass and turned on the blower. Everything ran fine except for a loud noise. The pressure from the clog had bent the blower shift and bent it. I will have to replace the motor anyway. I didn't win but I learned. If yougo to a mechanic he will probably charge 250.00 to 300.00. Mine was 8.00.
Thank you so much. You're video was the first one i watched. After I watched the video I ordered the blower motor on Ebay for 38 dollars. Had a little trouble with the electrical connection but was finished in an hour.
THANK YOU!!! I'd been having to bump it with an umbrella more and more for a while and yesterday it finally gave up the ghost, and I looked you up. The blast is back.
OUTSTANDING VIDEO>>>>Just wish I knew where to send you case of beer !!! The Toyota dealership wanted over $400 to do it. I got the replacement Denso unit for less than $70. You are the man !! THANK YOU !!!
Thank you appriciate the feedback and glad you were able to get it yourself!
Thank you ! Had a lot of noise increasing for three weeks , airflow weekending , and then nothing. Again thank you ! God bless.
Thank you so much. It’s freezing cold this winter and I couldn’t manage any longer without any heat in my car. I bought the part on eBay for $25 and replaced it within 20 min. I’m a girly girl and very satisfied that I saved my coins for something important...like a purse. Lol!
Alondra Leary Awesome! Glad to hear the video helped, and $25 is better then what i paid😀
You saved my sanity. I was at able to remove the blower and get the junk rattling around in the squirrel cage.
Wanted to thank you for this video. Got this done for around $85 including cabin filter. Your vid was simple to understand and I got it done in less than 45 mins. Lining up the holes in a tight space blind was the hardest part. Saved a few hundred dollars thanks to your vid. Like
S M awesome. Im glad you got it done yourself!
Todd you are the Man. The wife did it all herself, i just stupervised. It didn't take long thanks to your instruction.
That's awesome to hear!
U did your best by showing us how to save money. Because Corolla ac just went wrong but I still don't know what's wrong yet. But thanks
Good luck. Hope you figure it out!
Man, Want to say thank you for this video. Found a literal rats next inside mine and didnt need to replace the motor. You really saved me time on this job.
Followed your video. It helped enormously. I took the blower motor out because it didn't work at any speed. I connected it to a 12V battery charger I own and the motor spun. (+) and (-) are easily seen on the plastic housing. Just as easy to connect a few feet of wire to the battery and connect it to the fan. Anyhow, the motor worked connected to the 12V charger. I reinstalled the motor and realized my electrical connection must have been faulty. As soon as I put the connection back on, it worked. Corroded connection or something - known as electrical creep. I didn't have to buy anything and it works now. Thanks. I was ready to spend a $100 on it - lol
Thanks to your video I installed a blower this evening by myself. Dealer wanted $230 for a blower and I got one at Orileys for $60. You are the man!!!
Thanks for watching. Glad you were able to get it on your own.
Todd,
I am very happy to report that following your excellent guidance I successfully replaced blower motor on my son's car. Thank you so much for generous help with your time and expertise. In times like this when money is tight, what you have done really makes a difference. God Bless you.
I literally have the same exact car look. Mine is an 04'. LE.Standard transmission too. Keep everything running nice and clean. Thankyou so much for the video man! My blower motor just started sounding like a spaceship.
Hope you get it fixed! Good luck!
Watching this in 2020! This video was great!!! Very detailed and you really did a good job explaining everything!!! I am a self-taught mechanic so I love videos like this!!!!! Thanks again!
Thanks for watching, appriciate the feedback!
Thank you for this video. I had a mouse rotting away in the fan motor. I never would have been able to figure out how to get that fan apart and back together again.
I am a 69 year old woman that managed to squeeze myself into that space and get the dead mouse out and put it all together again. I could not have done it without this video. And I hope I never have to do it again.
Well done! I just got quoted $560AU from an airconditioning mechanic. Going to do it myself as well :)
Thank you for great video. Your mentioning every tool and size needed saved me a some trial and error.
I know this is a very old video but if you're still around I just wanted to say thank you so much with your video I was able to replace the blower motor in my 2004 Corolla. The blowers are a little more expensive now 80 bucks but you still save me a ton of money thanks again
Hi thanks for watching! I am glad this video helped and that it saved you some money! At least you know the historical price at the time I made the video lol.
Thanks buddy. I got it done in less than 30. My wife wanted to pay someone to do it but it’s really cold out and she would have had to drive it till next week to do it. You saved her some serious freezing.
Thank you so much for this video! Saved us so much money. It is easy enough that this 57 yr woman completed the job. Thank you for the easy to follow instructional video. It was a Good send
Thank you thank you thank you. You just saved me a couple hundred bucks. It wasn't difficult at all. Took less than an hour, and most of that was trying to line up the holes to mount the new blower.
Awesome! Glad you got it!
Thanks for the detailed instructions, most helpful. I’ve learned something new watching your video. One less thing I have to pay someone else to do for me.
Thank you SO much for this video! It's flawless, and made it easy to do this repair myself! You saved me so much trouble, money, time, and worry. Thank you again!
Glad it helped, thank you for watching!
@@ToddsGarage This is a great video , Thank u !!
I have a corolla 03 Nd having trouble with da vents not blowing hot air , do u have a video with possible options to fix this ??
Thank u in advance !! 🙌
Todd thank you for providing this fantastic step by step tutorial on replacing the blower fan motor for 03 Toyota Corolla. I am a female and I HATE taking my car any mechanic to get ripped off. I live in California its hot as hot feels and I just replaced the blower motor in my corolla. I ordered blower off amazon 36.00, what a great deal. Toyota dealer quoted me the entire blower assembly for 198.00 they don't sell the blower fan motor by its self, what a rip off. Thank you Todd again for empowering people to do simple things by them selves an save a lotta $$$$. Blessing to you
I hardly comment on a video. However thank you I was able to get it fix in a matter of minutes less than 10 min. Save us some money.
Glad to hear it helped! Thanks for watching!!
Thanks, Todd!!! You should "monetize" your video so people can click on an ad once in a while and make you a few bucks! Great video!
Thanks to you, I'll look like a genius when my niece brings her sick Corolla over for work!!!
08 Camry here, not much different than the Corolla. 9yrs of TX heat and my blower died.
I just saved anywhere from $250 to $300 bucks. Thanks Todd, Go Sox!
My blower motor seems to have a dead spot so that sometimes it won't start unless I remove the filter and rotate the blower a little. I just ordered a replacement motor - a cheap fix thanks to your video!
watching this just to see how to change the 08 blower motor, have to change one in an Avalon once the part arrives, awesome vid
This video is accurate, I saw another one that wasn't. This is the same setup as Toyota matrix Thanks
Mine has been noisy and finally went out, i ordered one, your instructions will be a great help when it arrives , Thanks
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
Good video, made the job really easy. One tip I would add is to remove the rear two star screws for the blower motor first as the OEM motor sagged and made it very difficult to get to the last rear screw. After struggling a bit, I ended up putting the front screw back and it made taking the last rear screw out really easy.
You helped me survive the North West heat wave! Today 105
Thanks for watching, glad it helped!
I just follow your instructions in your video and did it in less than 20 minutes by the way I did it on my 2006 Toyota 4Runner and like you said, saved myself a lot of money by doing it, thank you so much for your help.
Anibal Martinez Glad you got it fixed. Thank you for watching :)
Listen it happen to my car yesterday saw the video took out old one new in and baaaam its happy days again .Thank you for taking the time to show us how to do it and save money God bless you and your house.
Thanks for the video, was well explained, fixed my car in 30 minutes.
Just knocked this out for my own vehicle, thanks for the help. Good advice, even almost a decade later!
Very helpful - did mine in less than 20 minutes. AC is quiet as a mouse again. Thank you!
Total piece of cake. Took me 20 minutes! Thanks!!
You're the bomb! I love how easy this car is to work on.
Thanks for watching! Appriciate you!!
Replaced my blower motor in 15 minutes thanks to your video.
Thank you for watching, glad it helped!
Thanks for this video because I just changed my blower motor like 30 minute's ago this video was very helpful.
Thanks for watching, I am glad the video helped!
I am so grateful for you. What a life saver. Your instructions were so easy to follow, I now have flowing a/c again. Now time to go recharge my a/c. Gonna check to see if you have a tutorial on that too!
Excellent job explaining everything! You are a fine instructor sir!
Thanks so much for making this video, watched it and was able change out my blower motor and have sweet, cool, cool AC again and saved myself over $250 since didn't have to take it to the mechanics.
Glad you got it done yourself!
N N Yeah, it was intermittently working and then not working (and the fan was louder actually then it is now with the new blower in). Once it stopped working altogether (but cold still feel cold air trickling out when driving fast enough on the freeway and worth the recycle air off) I checked my fuses and also made sure the blower was getting power before switching it out,.
Thank you!!! Much much appreciated as it’s not always easy to find videos for my 2006 Corolla. Successfully have my AC working again.
Great video....so many times videos like this have saved me a ridiculous amount of money after finding out just how much mechanics, electricians, plumbers, and appliance techs have quoted me for some of the most fairly easy jobs....so many people right now on tight budgets...smh....and one breakdown can wipe out a person's savings (if they have any).....Thank you Sir for taking the time to put this info out in such a clear way as well as something I can watch with my son and not have to worry about how many F bombs are thrown in.....Thanks again!!
Thanks for watching and I appriciate the time you took to write this comment. I am glad this video was helpful!
Thanks for making this extremely clear and super helpful video. I now have a working AC thanks to you.
Glad to hear that! Thank you!
Thanks bro you just save me a bunch of money Progressive couldn't even do that
Thanks for watching! Glad it helped! Awesome you saved money!
hi blower motor on my son's car is making lot of noise. Either something got in the housing or motor is going bad. I plan to change the motor. Thank you so much for your clear and precise video. I am sure having watched it I can successfully replace the motor. Without your great tutorial I would be lost. Thank you. Best regards,
Thanks and good luck, let me know how it goes.
Dude, THANK YOU! My Fiancé and Kids will ride comfortably again.
Many thanks! This was so clear I only had to watch it once! You just saved me $150.
This helped me reach the air flow to clean it. And now there's no more funny sounds when I put my AC on 😁. Thanks a lot
Thanks for watching!
Thanks Todd. My blower started making a high-pitched squealing sound, so I watched this video and was able to take it apart and fix it. The problem was that the filter had been sucked down into the fan. Although your video helped me do that, I could have saved time by first checking the filter. Other than that, thanks! It made the whole thing A LOT easier!
Right on, glad to hear. I've had my air filter get sucked into the blower before too!
Thanks found this very helpful. I went to Garage and they wanted £75 for Diagnostic charge, the further cost for install part and then price of part which would be £250. My blower wouldn't come on at all so checked obvious fuse, tapped a few relays incase one was sticking as my blower would come on sometimes and then stay off. But not relay problem. Checked Blower Motor resistor control which looked ok which is just at back of blower with 2 screws to take off, thought may been loose solder connection or dodgy resistor but it was ok. Tapped bottom blower motor and sometimes it would come on or change speed as if it was sticking. So took blower motor off as you shown with 3 screws . Also found blower motor filter above which took out and tried cleaning as it was full of dust. I took plastic cover off blower motor back to view motor commutator and bushes also lot dust came out. So gave it good WD40 and let drip out on floor outside. I refitted and unit works fine, but it does change speed a bit on its own accord without selecting change but if you tap bottom of blower motor its goes back to normal. The bushes looked warn and comm was well worn, so do think need new one but least got it going for a bit so allows time to get part.
My Toyota once again has ice cold AC! Thanks so much for making a video like this. It was very well done and made my job very easy. :)
Thanks for watching, I appriciate it! I'm glad this video helped!
Thanks very instructive I just saved $200, and did it with my son.
This video help me a lot my blow fan was making grinding sounds and by watching this help me to change it my self. And saved a lot of money. And where i live i need a blower fan in the winter so my window dont frost and cant see out of them
Vincent GOUIN CIERSON glad you got it fixed. Thanks for the comment!
I have discovered a noise from my 2005 Toyota Corolla. It is very faint and when I slow down apply brakes it gets a little louder. However when I turn the fan off there is no noise. Tomorrow I will check the fan thanks for the video AC/DC Rocks
Thanks for watching!
The screw closest to engine needs to be removed from the bottom tray before its shoved over to side, common sense but someone less mechanically inclined may break a bracket by forcing that. Also a socket can also used to take off the bottom 3 screws in addition to a star driver. Helpful video thanks!
I just changed out mine out on a 06 Corolla. I bought a used blower from a junk yard. It works but only on high.
Ahh bummer, sorry to hear that! Thanks for watching though!
Thank you for your expertise, your video saved me hundreds of dollars! I did however buy my part locally at AutoZone, they offered a lifetime warranty and the online versions of the same exact part only offered up to a 1 year warranty and with replacement being as easy as walking into the store to get a new one if a warranty replacement is EVER needed, it was worth the extra little bit of money up front. Total replacement time was under 15 minutes...THANK YOU!!!!
Thanks man, it took me 14mins start to finish
Thank you. That was a clear presentation. I might be doing this tomorrow after I confirm that it's not a blown fuse problem. I feel confident in doing this after watching this video.
Thanks for watching, I got a video on the resistor as well.
Thanks, man! I was able to replace the blower of my Corolla. Your instructions were easy to follow. Great video!
Thanks man!! Great video!! I just did it with your video coaching me, it took 30 min!! Looking forward for more videos!! You saved me from the hot weather in Texas
Paul Coronado great to hear that! Your lucky its super cold where i live right now!
Great Video! I appreciate letting us know the tool sizes required!
you probably dont give a damn but does any of you know a way to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost my password. I would love any tips you can give me.
@Maddux Kade Instablaster :)
@Zakai Benson Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Zakai Benson It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account :D
@Maddux Kade Happy to help xD
This saved me about $480. Great Video.
excellent excellent video to the point very easy to follow your videos are great thank you so much ;)
Thanks for the video.
But before I tried anything, I first did what I usually do with repairs. I made a soft fist and hit the blower from below. And wham! It started running again! LoL I'll do that with electrical parts (softly) such as a headlight or license plate light and often it solves the problem very quickly and extremely inexpensively! hehe
Thank you for watching, at least you know how to replace if you need to eventually.
@@ToddsGarage Exactly! And why I thanked you right off the bat; for future replacement knowledge. Because just like a starter being bang with a hammer to work only works a certain number of times until it no longer works.
Excellent video!!! I was able to fix it and it only cost the price of the part and about an hour of time. Them 3 screws that hold in the blower ain't no joke to screw out or in. I wish I had the star screw driver or at least a magnetic flathead. Maybe they would have made it easier.
Glad to hear you got it done yourself!
Thank you for this video !! I was totally able to fix my ac!
Angela Blumberg glad to hear that!
This is one of the best on the Corolla Blower motor removal. Unfortunately, you skip over most of the hardest part - installing the motor. How do you hold up a 5-10 pound motor while you hold a screw with another hand, and hold the screwdriver with your spare hand? My solution is put short strips of duct tape from the bottom of the motor and hang them to the surrounding metal above. My problem was that my T20 screws are real short, so after hours of trying to start them into the first hole on the hole nearest the back (near me) I had an idea. I substituted a longer phillips machine screw, which was long enough to find the screw hole. After that first one was secured, it was much easier to screw in the original shorter screws into the two holes on the sides.
FYI the "Star" bit is called Torx, in this case a T-20 Torx bit
Thank you that made my whole world lol my AC finally works and because of you i know how to do it my self :)
+Heber Emmanuel Serrano-Sepulveda glad to hear that!
Thank you very much! Huge hugs to you! i have not done it yet but now i know how to do it! i am going to order an part right away!
Thank you Todd! Purchased the part online, installed it myself within about 20 minutes. Couldn't have done it without your video. I REALLY appreciate it! If you are ever out in Phoenix, I would like to buy you a beer/dinner. Serious! Great video!
thanks man, I'm glad to hear it worked out easy for you. I try to make my videos super descriptive and I'm glad it made it easy for you to complete. I'll look you up in Phoenix if I ever go there!!
👏 No comment any more u did all in your vedio, Im gonna clean my blower of my Toyota corolla -03 ! Thax a lot for such a best.... vedio.
Sugest: Pls try to keep a extra torce/Lite for "Dark area vedios"
---M R Khan ,Bangladesh.
Please post a vid about replacing the blower motor resistor!
Thanks for watching, hopefully I will in the future.
Thank you, it's very accurate, but the last screw in the front its horrible, but it's easy to do...
Thanks for watching, I am glad this video was helpful!
Thank you for this video. Mine is a corolla 2004, it flows very little (at the number 1) and just little more air (at maximum speed and sounds like it was at the maximum but just not flows much air conditioned), so do you think is the blower too? Thank you again for your response
Could be the blower or other things. Did it gradually get worse over time?
High Class! I opened the car door when I first started the video. When it was done, so was I!
Thanks for help me bro some of this things ne er did before give us a pain in the brain but tanks to you life comes easier bless you bro Alf from El paso tx😁😁😁😁 Bye!!!!!!!
I believe those bolts you are removing on the motor housing with the T 20 start can also be removed with an 8 mm socket.
Thanks for watching and the feedback!
Great vid. And you don't even have to clean out the glove box to do it. Good job!
Lol thanks for watching, appriciate the feedback!
Your a life saver... thank you from Nigeria..🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for watching!
Nice video you have saved me a lot of money
I am glad to hear that!
Thank you for the video. I followed your instructions and it took about 15 minutes. I really appreciate it.
Great video. Helped me replace the blower motor on my 2007 Corolla. Thank you!
Glad to hear that. Thank you for watching.
Thanks Todd! I've got one in a 2010 Corolla bought from Drivetime, (don't ever buy a car from them!) and I never had a blower motor go out on two Camrys I owned nor any other vehicle I've owned. I don't know why this one is going out being only 6 years old with less than 50K miles on it, but none the less it needs to be replaced. The Speedy Oil change place quoted me "about $200.00" to replace it, and after having replaced my serpentine belt on my last Camry I thought I'd look into how to replace it myself. Kudos to you and your wife or girlfriend for this video! It's very informative and looks pretty darn easy! I'll watch it again before I give it a go, but just wanted to thank you for the video! Do you know if it will be relatively the same on a 2010? I haven't found a video on how to replace a 2010 blower motor for a 10' Corolla. What year Corolla is this video on? Thanks again for the video brother! Nice shirt too!
My Corolla is a 2006. How did it go for you?
I haven't replaced it yet...haven't had the money...should be able to soon though. I replaced a serpentine belt on my Camry and after watching your video I know I could replace this. Thanks again for the great video I'll refer back to it when I get er' done and let you know how it went brother.
