Over the past 4 years, I have had to replace the A/C-Heater blower motor 3 times. The original was replaced about 4 years ago. The 2nd unit only lasted a year and was replaced. It is now 2 years since that replacement and the 3rd unit is shot. Electrical connection does not seem to be the proble…

Repeated parts failures usually mean something is being overlooked. AutoZone shows this blower motor is pretty pricy for a Buick at 150 dollars, but 500 bucks? Is that a factory OEM one? Have you tried connecting the blower motor directly to a power source (battery, charger, etc) with the blower re…

OK, Thinking about the cost of the blower motor (and labor?), just for chuckles, how long would/should it take to re & re the motor?

That price included labor and was completed in one day. All work was done by the same authorized electrical shop and not a dealer. They told me they used GM authorized blowers. The third unit cost was only $100.00 as the manufacture picked up the cost of the unit and part of the labor. I’m guess…

I don’t remember how they broke down the original bill. This repair was done within one business day (each time). I am aware that I can purchase a new blower for $150.00 +/-. The rest is labor and I was told it was this high as this blower is in the dash and the dash needs to be take apart to rem…

Roadrunner, I’m afraid the flat rate time is unknown to me and since I’ve never changed a blower motor on this particular model maybe this total is correct. I’m mostly a “foreign car” guy but have done a lot of domestic work. Every blower motor I’ve changed on a domestic or Asian car has really neve…

Interesting OK. Thanks for the input. I read on another site (the same one I mentioned below) (a Hummer service site) where they were changing the cage over from the burnt out motor to a new one and had to make sure the cage fins faced the right way. David, It’s not all that unusual for a supplie…

You can get the book labor costs at alldata.com , but it will cost you $25 to sign up. Are there any seals or tubes on this blower that might be missing? The reason I ask is that on my car the blower motor is under the hood. There is a small tube from the plenum back to a opening in the motor. I t…

Some blower motors are vented. That is there’s either a rubber boot or a little flexible hose that connects to the blower motor. This draws in cold outside air to help cool the blower motor. If this vent hose isn’t connected to the blower motor, it can cause the motor to run hot. Which shortens its …

I drive a '91 LeSabre. The blower is mounted on the engine side of the firewall, so access is VERY easy - just a few bolts that are easy to get to. My Haynes manual covers the fulls size FWD GM’s from '85 thru '02, and doesn’t show a different layout for different years. That said, don’t take the…

Tester is right, A LOT of GM blower motors use a vent tube that runs from the HVAC duct to the back of the motor housing (the motor cools itself)… is it possible that yours disappeared and they never replaced it afterward?
