My blower quit working, but does work sometimes. I went to the shop and the head guy wasn’t there so the old mechanic said, “give the blower motor cover box a couple little smacks, and if it starts working a bit, then it’s a bad blower and you need to replace the blower motor”. I did, and it started right up. Now I drive with a golf club in the passenger seat so I can smack it while driving if it goes out. I’m broke, so I’m trying to get every bit of use I can out of it. When I get the money, it seems to be about the only thing I can replace on my own, and a brand new one cost between $40 and $80 depending on where you buy, and what brand.

Heck yah brother! If you can limp it along why not! Money well saved. Hopefully it doesn't give up the ghost when you need it most

@@hoodratsgarage77 I was able to get 2-3 more weeks out of it. Then went to the salvage yard and got a new to me blower that was easy enough to install in their parking lot in under 2 minutes, and was only $30 no tax! I still can’t believe it’s easier to change out blower motors than it is to just change out the cabin air filter! 😂

My blower will come on if I wiggle the center console wire harness? Can you help point me towards what I need? On the left a yellow wire is very hot

What happens if you continue to drive the car if the fans are working but it’s just noisy

It's mostly just an annoyance. If the bearing failed completely, it could seize the motor, which would draw too much current and cause the fuse to the blower motor to fail.

at 5:04, you put the air filter in wrong. air is going to be heading up through the filter, not down.

You are incorrect, my friend. The air flows from up at the cowl and is pulled down into the blower motor. Don't believe watch other ford fusion cabin filter replacement videos. Thank you for watching!
