[DeTomaso] Blower motor replacement

[Jim Gray]

Michael,

Because I had removed the dash before and it wasn't too tough I decided to pull 
it again.  The biggest challenge is to loosen the evaporator box so that you can 
at least get your hands behind to remove the screws that hold the impeller 
housing. I can't image how Jim Kuehne did that job without pulling the dash.  It 
CAN be done but is just that much more difficult.

I had to soak the rusty screws with crub buster two days in a row so that I 
could just get them to turn with the small screwdriver that you're limited to.

Jim Gray

So, are you doing the removal with the dash/fanbox still in the car?

Sounds like it. I can't remember if mine was labelled or not after this 
long but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a made-in-USA motor as-stock. Maybe your 
problem is in the wiring or the resistor, not in the motor? Curious- J DeRyke
