Blower motor for AC (AC blower making wierd noise)

[shenanigans]

SO where is the blower motor located on 4th gens, more specifically a 2k?

I did one on a 3rd gen, I knwo where its located, but the computer is in the same spot on 4th gens. Is it still in the same spot just behind the PCM or under the dash in the cabin? Just curious where it is and best way to get to it.


My issues are my blower fan makes a rattling or something noise that changes with speed of the motor. Possible just something stupid caught up in it, but just wanted to check it out because its annoying me.

I spent more than $200.00 for someone to do the job. This technician explained me a couple of things and I have read about that issue at hanes manual. I'll tell you in detail tonight, cause I'm rushing now.

Issue? I assume its either somethign in my ducts or the blower itself. Motor wouldn't be more then $50, hell possibly just $25 if its like my 3rd gen which is very likely.

the blower motor is Under the lower right side of the IP, mounted in the HVAC module
. that was replacement instructions. two things though, when it is making its noise, feel the case around the blower motor and feel for a vibration. if you have one, it might have a runout problem or something. other than that, i think you might just have some foreign object in there

Sweet so under the dash on the passenger side? Seems alot easier then on my 3rd gen it was mounted in the firewall half in the engine compartment, was a ***** to get to the bolts, I had to buy a ratcheting open wrench just for that.
