This is outrageous. I thought you made this as a prank. I didn't even remove the cover.. 2011 Silverado 2500. Just bashed the case with a hammer once and it came to life. BEST. REPAIR. TUTORIAL. EVER. I am laughing my ass off alone on my truck right now.

Hilarious! I’ve got a 2011 Sierra, same issue just happened. I spent a good 25 minutes checking fuses before watching your video. One well placed Fonzie punch later and I’m swimming in heat again! Thanks dude.

Sir, thank you so much!! I had JUST finished replacing my oil pan gasket and transmission cooler lines only to find that my vents weren’t blowing air. My heart sank considerably after doing all that work, and also considering that it’s the middle of June! But I quickly popped the cover off, gave the blower motor a few “fist bumps,” and my cab is now full of cold air. You have saved the day!

My son bought a 2008 chevy Silverado today and the blower motor wasn't working and I searched up this video and he went out after watching this and couldn't get the bolt out and smacked it and it worked. Your a life saver. Thank you very much and my son thanks you too.

I bought my 2013 Silverado (40,000 miles )two weeks ago and tonight it was chilly and no blower function. I went straight to KZfaq and found this video. I didn`t even take the cover off. Turned blower on and gave it a good couple thumps with my hand. It worked !

El Panin, este el hombre! I had the same problem with the blower/fan on my 2011 GMC 2500HD, followed el hombre's advice and returned the $43 dollar fan relay I blindly purchased, because one whack was all it took for that fan to blow! I can only imagine what the shop would have charged to diagnose this... Thank you, muchisimas gracias!

It worked! I didn't bother taking the cover off. There is a small rectangular cutout in the cover where the blower can been seen and felt within. As suggested before, I wacked on the underside of the cover where the fans is and boom (with the fan powered), the fan came on. I have heard criticism of people who use KZfaq as a go to to fix things, but hey, it works. Thanks!

Then I start reading the comments here... I'm like really!! Well I didn't even bother removing the cover, I just hit hit at the right spot with the cover on, and sure enough... the blower starts working. I'd like to say 2 things to el Panin... sorry for my initial though you being a real joker... AND thanks a lot for putting up this info. You saved me a lot of time and money.

All of a sudden my air didn't work - no blowing or anything in my 2013 silverado 1500. I figured it was a blown fuse or something that's gonna cost me a lot of cash to fix. NOPE. If your air isn't blowing, seriously follow this video. I took out the one bolt furthest towards the passenger door, pulled down the plastic far enough to solid smack the blower with my socket wrench AND IT WORKS HAHAHAHA I never would of imagined. Thanks for saving me a trip to the shop!!!!!
