My ac doesn't get all the way hot in winter and doesn't get all the way cold in summer. What's going on?
I really like this channel. The explanation are to the point and easy to understand.
Thank You ! Im having this issue
this was super helpful. mine just randomly stopped working bc of old age. prompts to check the fuse too was a nice tip....thank you.
Thanks simple and to the point.
Thank you for good video!!!
Thanks, this helped me a lot
this helped me soo so so much!!!! now i don't have to pay $3-500 to get it fixed hopefully $150 at most! this video was everything i cant thank you enough
Awesome thank you!
thanks for all instruction and information to how to fix any auto car part issue save a lot $$$ and also helping me to do yourself works 👍🤓🚗
So here's a crazy story. One freezing cold winter i was living in the middle of nowhere and I turned on my heater and instantly heard small thumps. And a couple of days later a horrible smell started coming from the vents. Well i remembered a story an uncle told me when i was young about something similar happened to him, so i said no way it could be the same issue. I pulled the blower motor off and sure enough a field mouse had gotten in there and died probably when I had it turned on full blast.. threw it out, lysol the crap out of the blower, pop it back in, and all was good.
that's horrific omg
Are there 2 of those, 1 for high and low pressure hoses?
What is it off the blower motor doesn’t work but if I hit the shroud around it, the blower states again
My goes dtron and then weak air flow, if i drive thru a pothole it starts back up again same if i tap it starts right up, do i need to replace it or could it be a fuse?
Take a drink every time he says blower motor 😂
Take a drink every time he walks up the pitch to the end of the sentence
Can the blower motor affect the voltage of the car and the engine? At times my car will shut off or start itself which I know can be a symptom of the ignition switch. But also the voltage of the car goes up and down drastically when the blower motors turned on whether it's currently running or not. It's an old blower motor and sometimes doesn't like to work. I guess my question would be is it possible for it to affect other parts of the car?
Thank u for the help!!
and thank you!
Hey can u help I have an 2008 Toyota corolla AC blower works fine on all speeds but AC works cold on fan speeds 1-3, 4-6 doesn't blow cold any help would be nice
Nice! Just replaced mine 2 weeks ago. Burning smell when on high.
Years ago I had that problem and it was the wire Hardness burned need to replace and blower motor and fix the issue. Easy fix best of luck
I own a 07 E-450 cab and chassis dually and the blower motor works for a while then it'll stop blowing air and turn on again, then turns off again after a few minutes and turns back on after a few minutes...
Could this be the blower motor resistor or the blower motor itself or both....?????
I have a Mazda 6 2018, and the issue is that the air flow is weak, especially at lower speeds. I can barely feel any hot/cold air coming out. The cabin air filter is new. The blower motor makes no noise, it seems is working fine, as well as the blower motor resistor because it lets me change the speeds . However, I also noticed that the driver’s side vents the air flow is weaker. What could the problem be? Could it be that the AC pressure is low?
Thank you
and thank you
If the fuse is blown does it still work? Mine just doesn’t have power
Hey bud got a question for ya,
Four days ago I bought a 1999 Ford F-150!
And when I turn on the AC after a few minutes I have smoke coming out from under the hood vents outside the cab and it smells electrical, now my thinking is this.
That the blower motor is completely locked up and is getting extremely hot once power is applied causing it to smoke I was also informed this vehicle sit for a long time, I also had to reglue the windshield back in I did that on July 3rd of 2023 I could literally lay it out on the hood the gentleman I bought it from was unaware of that issue he replaced the brakes the rotors and a new fuel pump, also the speedometer don't work. I checked all fuses they appear to be good. I look forward to getting a reply from ya

It's 3 months later. So I expect you already found the problem and fixed it.
With a blower motor, the windings are coated with shellac. So when the bearing fails, the fan stops spinning, but electricity is still going to it. So the windings get hot and start smoking! 🔥Then you see smoke, but inside the cab. This will also make the blower motor resistor get hot and fail.
But you had smoke coming from vents under the hood, outside the cab.
I'm not familiar with pickup trucks. So my best guess is:
1: The smoke from the blower motor traveled through vents and got under the hood. This is just a guess. I actually don't know if this is possible.
2: You had two problems at the same time! The failed blower motor was making smoke, and something else under the hood was making smoke!
I replaced Debra's blower motor last night. She's an old friend, and she has a 2009 Ford Edge. The old blower motor seized, which also made the blower motor resistor fail.
Surprise, there are two types of blower motor resistors for this car! There is one for automatic heating and one for manual heating. So I had to buy a second resistor, and return the first one.
The old blower motor absolutely stunk, from the burned shellac. It had a strong smell of ashes.
Also, I find a lot of bargains, shopping for car parts on Ebay. I bought a blower motor for $38, plus tax. The cheapest price at O'Reilly was $66.
Hopefully this will help you out. I wish you many happy miles with your new old Ford pickup, Anthony 😀
My gfs Kia Rio works most times but as soon as it gets warms it starts to turn off then I have to smack it around the glove compartment area for it to start back up (it’s an $800) fix supposedly 🤦🏽♂️
Blower motor is my new sweater weather 😂
Mine did none of the mentioned and just stopped working. No noise or indication of going out but just stopped. Any guesses what happened? I'll let you know if you are right or wrong, for those with a similar situation.
I have a sort of high pitched "ringing" or whistling sound coming from the vents. What would you think that is? Faulty bearing?
No, you gotta clean out the other coil under all that metal, mine did the same just cleaned it with coil cleaner , works good now
Think of how someone whistles with a blade of grass in between their fingers as they blow. You have debris or more likely a duct door or plastic ductwork that has shifted and the air moving past this deformity or obstruction, creates the whistles. Partially opened duct doors (as ya switch from floor to face to windshield defrost) happen due to debris, but if the car is older, it’s more likely a vacuum line leak issue
I’m still stuck between the motor or resistor … early in the morning sometimes there a slight blow of cold air when it’s on high.. but majority of the time it won’t blow anything but I can here it trying to come on. Do I just need to replace both ??
Advise replace both they work together when 1 is operating so that away in the future you don't have any problems when in ac/blower motor. Mode
WHAT IF IT WON'T SHUT OFF EVEN THO CAR IS OFF. DRAINS BATTERY OVERNIGHT. HOW DO I FIX THAT?
Mine turns off randomly and then turns back on when i hit a bump. I can hear the condenser coming on and off so i know its not that.
Did you ever get it fixed?
How do you know if its the Blower Motor or Climate Control Module? In this case my fan only works on high or number 5, the other 4 positions dont work at all..
My 22 civic Ac and heater stopped working it turns on but after like a minute it sounds like the blower motor is struggling makes a noise like it’s having a hard time and the output stops almost right away after it’s turned on i stopped using it just leave it off I’m taking it to the dealer in the next couple days I have a appointment
Mine works but way weaker then before. It's a 2021 civic. Should I replace It or what would I need to do first?
Check the cabin air filter first
@rs-vp7re yeah I did. I actually ended up.needing to replace the blower motor. Got It for $70 at Advanced Auto Parts. It has a lifetime warranty. I've already had to replace It once under warranty. Takes maybe like 5 minutes to replace or less.
When I turn on fresh air I smell a little burn, I wonder if it's the blower motor. My 2018 mazda cx5 engine temperature is close to the middle 210F when in operation. I didn't pay attention before, is this a normal temperature? thanks.
Indeed, 210°F is normal. The burnt smell might be from the blower motor. Check it and the wiring, and clear any debris. I would also look at the engine and see if you notice anything unusual.
@@easyautofix thanks for replying, I opened up the mud cover and found couple drip of oil so there's a leak somewhere and the car has only 53K miles for a 2018 car. I used to think highly of mazda but after this incident, I am not sure anymore.
If the blades are broke will it still work , or should I buy a new one
Your airflow will decrease with broken blades. If you want better airflow I would buy a new one.
How tobget into the area to fix it please
It is a tight fight but you'll have to slide the seat all the way back, also there are three bolts that hold the blower motor on start with the hardest one first because if you don't you will have to fight with the weight of the blower motor and it being the hardest bolt to get to is a bad combination and headache you can avoid just buy starting with the hardest bolt first.
But the absolute first thing you want to do after moving the seat back if you have power seats after that is done, for everyone why do you have power seat or not anytime you're doing something with electronics or electricity on your vehicle disconnect the battery before you give your ratchet the first turn!!!!! I cannot stress this enough!!!!!
Second thing remove the cover that is over the blower motor, then start with the hardest bolt then move to the next hard bolt then the easy bolt but also hold the blower motor up you do not want that blower motor to come crashing down into your face!!!!!!!
Then unplug the plugs! Then toss it to the side and grab the new one and pop it in to the hole and put the first bolt about half way in/ the easy one now move back to the hard one ( you did this to help hold the motor up and give you a little wiggle room to put it fully in it's place) now once it fully in it's place and the hardest bolt is all the way in push up on the motor and tighten up the hardest bolt then move to the easy bolt remember it's halfway in already and all you got to do is just tighten it up and also put the third one in and tighten it down make sure you tightened all three because if you did not it's going to vibrate loose and you don't want that now if you didn't connect your power connection and it's to where you can get to it from here go a head and hook it up, if not ( hook it up before you put in the hardest bolt at the beginning of the install - sorry I should have said something then) now hook your battery back up and don't start your car/truck/suv but just turn the key until the dash lights come on, now reach over and test your blower motor turn on the AC and the fan switch and you should have air and no loud noises this means you did it right! Go ahead and start your vehicle and check out your handy work 😊 now while you now have a let it run while you put your blower motor cover back on and put the seat back forward, then pick up all of your tools clean them/ wipe them down and put them up. As for the old blower motor I don't know if their is a core charge on them or not, if not please give it to someone who haul's scrap I know that it isn't much but to someone who haul's scrap it could mean the difference between a gallon of gas and something to eat or just a gallon of gas.
Believe me I do know, in my area shred is $7.00 a 100lbs and aluminum cans is $0.30 cents a pound so every small bit dose add up! And this better than letting it go and sit in a landfill somewhere, at this right it'll be recycled!
Mines stopped working but randomly turns on like nun randomly
Mine to,the wires are getting hot because of the blower fan on my Tahoe bout to replace it
English please
Sounds more like a resistor to me personally
Probably your resistor. Easy fix.
Mine does the same thing! I’m trying to figure out if I should replace the resistor or the motor or both. 😅 it also does rattle on the higher setting when it does decide to come on.
How long do blower motors last?
Depends on year make and model. A good average lifespan I’d say between 50k and 100k miles. I’ve had some go out before and after that on my cars. They just wear out after time or are built crappy
Japanese forever- European/American 5 years
Could a high pitched squealing noise be the blower motor
Yes
did you fix it?
My air flow is fine and no sounds, however it smells kind of burnt? What could that be?
Did you ever figure this out? Same is happening to mine.
I get a squeaking in the cabin and I thought I smelled burned rubber for a moment as well but it disappeared. The temperature was -38°C the morning it happened. Still squeaked when I drove home.
Can someone please explain to me why my blower motor will not twist on I’ve done everything right and it won’t work and I’ve even bought a new one can someone please explain it’s hard with no ac
Check your relay
did you ever figure out what the issue was. my blower motor isn’t moving at all but i don’t want to pay to get a new one installed and it still not fix the problem.
Mine almost caught on fire 😂
i have brand new blower motor and it whistles, tried everything so far, no leafs there, brand new salon filter also
Did you figure out what the problem was?
@@sendit3251 Never figured that out, tried everything, i had collision with that vehicle and i still have that blower, old blower was end of his life but worked fine.
@@KuriVaiM did you ever figure out the problem? my ac won’t blow air at all. let alone warm or hot air. the blower motor wasn’t moving when i checked. but i don’t wanna buy a new one, pay to have it installed and it still not fix the problem. was it the relay switch?
@@highwayheroes1454 could be, maybe fuse is blown
@@KuriVaiM I checked the ac fuse. I had someone look at it briefly and he said the test light lit up so there is power going to the blower.
My motor will run nicely for a few minutes and then gradually die down to a hamster wheel. I'll turn it off for a bit and then it'll work for a bit. The cycle continues. Is this the motor or the resistor?
Blower motor, most of the time if it's the resistor it'll stop working all together.
This just happened to my 22 civic idk why this happened I take very good care of my car interior and exterior lol it only has 13,000 miles I just stopped using the AC completely don’t want to further damage it taking it to the dealer
How much is a blower motor? For a 2014 Chevrolet Captiva?
What about vibrations?
My 2013 ram has vibrations when AC on and a humming sound AND it smells like coolant
Same issue in my Chevy Cruze. Would love to know if this is the cause!
What exactly is vibrating?
If it's your blower motor you need to get down there and tighten up the bolts
@@TeamWinnieRacingmy friend I hate to tell you this but you have a coolant leak in your heater core or the hose just outside your heater core my buddy had the exact same problem and same vehicle
The issue I’m having with my Kia is that the ac randomly turns off and I have to touch or push the cables a little bit for it to turn back on . Today it completely went out and it won’t even turn on even if I touch the cables .
My sounded like it was dying
Blower motor
If u want ur blower motor to last a bit longer just kick it and it’ll turn back on mine would turn on so I replaced the fuse thinking it was blown but no so I kicked it lightly and it came back on. Dont know how long it’ll last but 🤷♂️ it’s not my daily so idc
Me too 😂
Good tips😂😂
Say what🤔
