Hi,
Now when the winter is comming where I live in Northern Europe. What happens then? Of course the heater blower fan stopped working. I google on it and found that it is very common that the brushes are worn out. The blower doesn't cost very much and I ordered a new one direct. I normally use Mercedes parts which is much easier to find in Europe and much cheaper also.

I wrote it down with photos of my experiences from this heater blower replacement:

I hope it can be to some help for others who have the same problem with the heater blower.

I am amazed at the foresight of some Crossfire owners who document repairs and modifications they do to their cars. This one is another very thorough example, and I doubt I would have even considered a different part # for LHD vs. RHD cars!.

The fact you are an avid photographer is evident and further simplifies the repair steps. Well done - and thank you!

helps!

 

Hi,
I'm glad to hear my documentary of the blower replacement could be useful.

When I did this I spent 8 hours on internet to find ideas what's wrong and find correct spare parts. Then I spent 1.5 hours to replace it. And after that 8 hours to document "how to". Very different from how I did repairs 30 years ago.

Dave, have you added this to the LIST?

 

 

Yes, that's a big problem, a valuable website with information is suddenly gone. But it's also often when I wrote my DIY with photos on some forums as the images disappear. When I write on my own website, I can easily update with new information and correct all spelling mistakes I do when I try to write in English. My homepage will problaby not survive me but then maybe most Crossfires are gone too.

Here is my main Chrysler Crossfire page. Most of what I have written about repairs are very obvius, but the MIL lamp fix was very tricky to repair.

Maybe other repairs could be of help also.

Thanks for the information and pictures for the blower motor. I am having similar issues and was struggling to see the screws etc while lying on my back. Your pictures have made the job so much easier, many thanks and keep up the great work.

 

Thanks for the comment,

Great you got it to work. My new blower still work, after one year of use.
