Firstly, for beginners like me, I always take a picture of the board/wires to ensure they're put back properly. Second, never yank off the wires; hold the board while pulling them off gently. And third, I used a coat hanger to hold the board up and away to remove the blower, much easier! ✌️😎

You just made it too easy! I'm on it now, thank you!!

Thanks man. I didn't know that the blower just slid out. I almost cut a hole in the side of the housing to get it out.

Thank you, very useful in replacing the blower in my old G20Q3E Lennox

Thanks for the education🤘🏽

I wished he had gotten an old rusted shut instead of a brand new one.

Does the set screw have to go onto any particular place on the shaft? I noticed the shaft have groves in it on the flat part. Does the set screw need to line up with these groves on the flat side of the shaft? I noticed the set screw fits in the groves so that’s what makes me think that’s where it goes on the shaft.

Great video, cheers

He forgot to replace the screws that secure the blower in the track.

if the shaft is seized or jammed, how can we take the motor from blower wheel?? WD40 takes much time. And no way to use pulley puller.

Great video very helpful

Any advice on stopping the fan from grinding against the cage? That’s my only problem I go through when pulling blowers out as a new tech.

Has anybody removed a fan-blower from a counter flow furnace?

HI. GREAT VIDEO. Thanks. Quick question. If you put medium or extra speed wires on park, how would you run it on fan only without heat or cool. If you just wanted to circulate air. Thanks

4:48 what did he call that wrench? Done many a DIY projects and even have a few of those, but never had a name for them.

seems the mounting bracket is soldered on motor, if the replacement motor do not come with bracket, what bracket part number should be used?

Wish mine was that simple.i have no circuit board and all my wires are connected with wire nuts.

Update - previously I’ve posted the universal bracket one was having a hard time but no I got it in. Motor was under $100 and bracket another $30 ( at the time over a year ago). And yeah many suppliers won’t sell to general public only to AC techs / companies. Johnson Supply does though.

I;m trying to change motor using a universal fit vs Goodman and it uses a bracket not fitting too well with bolt holes . The tech said my system being 15-20 yo just change it new furnance , blower etc . New system . Nope . I told him this is why I didn't want to call any tech in the first place . just greedy .

I don't know why I am watching this. My neighbors have kittens stuck above their blower thing and I am struggling to get someone to come rescue them. If it were my apartment I might just take this apart. I have heard them crying since Saturday afternoon.😢

You reconnected the wires to the board incorrectly. Compare the location of the yellow wire at the beginning of the video with the way you reconnected them to the end. You also did not reinstall the screws that secure the blower housing. Attention to detail is crucial when doing work like this, and this is an example of what happens when you don't pay attention to detail. This video is how NOT to change a blower motor.

Is this diy video? I think Lennox needs to focus more on a technical side for professionals only
