Hello everyone! A few months ago my father noticed water sloshing and dumping into the passenger footwelll of his crossfire. After some research we discovered that the drains below the windshield were clogged, and we cleared them all out and dried the interior of the car. However, the air/heater does not function at all now. When we opened up the cover at the top of the footwell, we found leaves and water within the various blower components. If anyone has had experience with this I'd appreciate help in finding out which components need to be replaced and what the extent of damage could be. Please bear with me, because though I'm good with my hands, I don't have much experience working on cars and the like.

Thanks!

 

Most likely culprits are the motor and the resistor/speed assembly.

Does the motor turn by hand?

Corrosion on the electrical terminals?

 

Thanks, I'll check this evening. Can I pull the motor out completely?

 

Yes, 3 or 4 torx screws as I recall. ( not easy to get to though )

 

Easy for someone young and supple but not so easy for someone old and stiff like me😉 but still doable. Pull the relay down first then unbolt the blower motor and drop it down, it's not a hard job just tight quarters.the exact procedure is in the manual available here on the forum.

 

Oh ! And don't forget to check the fuse.
