Blower Motor Replacement
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What are the signs of a bad or failing blower motor?
Common symptoms include
- No air coming from vents when A/C or heat is on
- Weak airflow even at high fan settings
- Unusual noises (grinding, squealing, or rattling) from the dash area
- Inconsistent fan speeds or the fan only works on certain settings
- Burning smell (can indicate electrical issues in the motor)
- If the blower motor fails, your HVAC system won’t be able to push air through the vents.
2. Can I drive with a bad blower motor?
Yes, but it can be uncomfortable or unsafe in extreme weather. A failed blower motor means:
- No defrost in cold weather
- No cooling in hot temperatures
- Reduced visibility due to fogged windows
- It won’t affect the engine, but you’ll lose cabin climate control until it’s fixed.
3. How much does it cost to replace a blower motor?
Costs vary depending on the vehicle:
Parts: $100–$300
Labor: $100–$200
Total average: $200–$500
Luxury or compact vehicles may cost more due to limited space or complicated dashboards.
4. How long does it take to replace a blower motor?
Most blower motor replacements take 1 to 2 hours, depending on:
The vehicle's make and model
The motor’s location (some are easily accessible under the dash; others require more disassembly)
Shops may also inspect the blower motor resistor and cabin air filter during service.
5. Should I replace the blower motor resistor too?
Maybe. If your blower only works on certain speeds or not at all, the resistor (or control module) may also be faulty.
Many technicians recommend replacing it alongside the blower motor, especially if:
- Speeds are inconsistent
- The resistor has signs of overheating
- You’ve already replaced the motor once
- It’s a relatively low-cost part and can prevent future issues.
