LeakingOil Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 (Also posted on XT6.net) My blower motor just crapped out! Took it apart and one of the little brushes was totally gone, wore down right to the wire. Now the question: Can I replace them myself of do I have to take it somewhere to have it done? If I can do it myself...where do i pur chase the brushes? Need to have my A/C for summer and heat for when it gets nipply out! Any help is greatly appreciated!

Partsman Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 My motor was exactly the same - was running on the wire instead of the brush! I suppose you could replace the brushes, but it looked like a bi**h to put back together and I wasn't sure where to get brushes anymore, so I replaced the unit. The NAPA new one is $59.99 over the counter - part# 655-1617. However, I'm cheap (even though I get the employee discount) so I got a JY unit from a 93 loyale with 78k on the odometer for $20.

Dennis ex24 Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 melis, go grab one out of any everyday loyale/gl/dl/xt at the yard and toss it in there. any of them will work in your xt6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
