The winter has arrived and my heater blower fan is playing up, I need to give it a tap to work! Good opportunity to show you how to remove the 'hamster wheel' fan and replace with new.
I cover how top remove without removing the clutch pedal (for those who had manual) and also how to remove the clutch pedal completely if you are needing to. I also show where the heater resistor is and what the symptoms are.

My fan died in the middle of summer loolz. I had to drive arround soaking wet from sweat loolz... But I just took it to a mechanic to do the job :)

thanks for the encouragement, its very awkward to do, unless you use my help guidelines, the first time I did this is took me 3hours+ but now I can do it in half the time.

Holy crap I was thinking about getting this model civic but this as you say not for the faint hearted! I have a 2005 Accord. Open glove box empty it, press the sides in and let it drop. Blower motor right in front 3 screws I think. Thanks for the DIY videos keep making them.

Thanks. Replying other video. My lack heating I suspect as Thermo or Actuator or maybe even a blocked off under dash radiator

If you watch my video I show the little actuator lever which closes off the outside air does that move on your car, or it could be the thermostat

Hi, great video. I have to do mine, doesn't work at all. But I've got the wrong one - said on the website it fits my civic. I have 1.8 petrol. Do you have by any chance OE number for it? I'm in Ireland - right hand drive but on some doesn't say which one it is and I don't want to buy another wrong fan.

@GrooveOn 2 ай бұрын

I know what you mean I've made the exact same mistake. The best way is just make sure that the one that you have looks exactly the same in the photos as the one online. This was the one I bought and fitted www.ebay.co.uk/itm/383644361301?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=eo3flM5cSvO&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=hM34COOAS2q&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

its a real pain I know, try unclipping the harness mounts, you'l need to get on your back and reach up.

Hello, I have a problem with my "Heater Actuator". The thing (arm), that opens and closes, breaks for the second time in 6 mounts. I think that the mechanism moves really hard and the arm is just not that strong to move it, because when I move it with my hand from closed to opened it's kind of hard to do it. Or maybe something is wrong with the previous installation of the heater actuator. The part number is A24850A3710001, any suggestions what may be the problem? Thanks in advance!

@GrooveOn 2 ай бұрын

so the car-side vents are stiff to move and the A24850A3710001 actuator moves fine yes? Can you get into the car side movement and see if something is causing the stiffness, maybe corrosion . can you lubricate any item down there? silicon spray is good for plastics

hi mate, I've got no power to my heater blowers and my back window defogger? Will this be the resistor or the heater matrix. would love some guidence if thats possible? cheers

@GrooveOn 6 ай бұрын

hi there, I doubt the two are linked, the first thing to do is check the fuse to your de-mister window and the fuse to your blower fan. They are in the engine bay, Fuse 12 I think is for your rear de-mister and fuse 19 is for your blower.

@jonnykell7717 6 ай бұрын

@GrooveOn i will look at that today mate thank you . The blower fan fuse looked fine when I first came across the problem . There just isn't any power coming to the buttons on the dash .
