I recently replaced my blower motor, and that went fairly well. It runs at all speeds, and as far as I can tell, is functioning normally.
When I pulled the old blower, it looked like something had made a nest in the blower wheel.
Concerned there may be other detritus in the system, I reached up in to the blower assembly as best I could and groped around, but I didn't find anything else in there. Unfortunately, while my car isn't freezing cold any more, I'm not getting much flow out of the vents; it's certainly not blowing my hair back or anything.
It doesn't seem difficult to pull the glovebox, heater duct, and blower assembly, so I'm probably gonna do that on Sunday when it's a bit warmer out, but is there anything else I should be checking while I'm at it, like intake vents or something? (I'm not even sure where the intake vents are, although I know there should be separate vents for Fresh and Recirculate.) Is there an easy way of cleaning the ductwork between the heater duct and the vents short of taking the dash apart?
