Genius, as ever Cyd. My blower motor had stopped working. I initially thought it was the resistor. However I tested the resistor using a multimeter while it was still attached to the blower to check the voltage across the terminals as I changed the blower speed on the console. It stepped up from from 0V to 11V., so it was working correctly (this saved me replacing the wrong part!) so I then removed the fan. It was seized, almost certainly due to water ingress from the pollen filter housing (I remedied this using your other video so it won't happen again). I cleaned the motor thoroughly using electrical contact spray, then spray copious amounts of Ferosol on the bearings, wiping away the excess. I reassembled it and it is now working better than ever! Thank you.

The other failure mode is when the fan is not working, i.e. not spinning, but if you get your hand through the air filter housing and spin the fan manually - it starts spinning. If you have Tech2 or some other OBD2 reader that can read codes from various modules, you would find an error something along the lines of "blower motor - short or open circuit." I had this recently. You can use this method to see if the fan controller is dead or not. The problem here is the connection between the motor windings and the brushes. Water causes oxidation and corrosion between these two parts, and you loose electrical contact. Use IPA or contact cleaner to clean the windings and the brushes (do not lubricate them, and use only IPA/contact cleaner - you want a good electrical connection there.) Then lubricate the bearings as shown in the video and the fan will be like new. Sometimes the brushes themselves could be worn out. These can be easily replaced with new ones too, but mine seemed not too worn down. If the fan controller is actually dead, and if you are savvy with electronics and soldering, then you can actually disassemble the controller and replaced components inside. It either could be corroded traces, or a dead MOSFET or diode. I myself actually washed the whole motor with a shower hose - that got rid of a lot of rust particles and other dirt. Sprayed the whole motor with IPA to displace water and let it evaporate quickly, then manually cleaned the brushes and windings, lubricated bearings with sewing machine oil and voila - quiet, strong, and like new blower fan :)
@CycloneCyd3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for adding that to the 'collective' knowledge base. Useful info Yeah, my brushes looked about 1/2 or so worn. I'll look into replacing them more deeply another time. For now I was happy the motor hasn't suffered too much from water ingress.
