check relay 1st Removal Remove front HVAC Housing from the vehicle. Disconnect the blower motor wire harness connector from the blower motor resistor block or blower motor power module, depending on application. Remove the two screws that secure the recirculation door actuator to the lower air intake housing and remove the wire harness from the routing clips molded into the bottom of the lower air intake housing. Remove the one screw (from the top) that secures the lower air intake housing to the upper air intake housing. Remove the four screws (from the bottom) that secure the lower air intake housing to the lower half of the HVAC housing and the upper air intake housing. Push the rubber grommet on the blower motor wire harness through the hole in the lower intake air housing. Feed the blower motor electrical connector through the grommet hole in the lower intake air housing. Position the recirculation air door as necessary to access and remove the three screws that secure the blower motor to the blower housing in the lower half of the HVAC housing. Gently flex the recirculation-air door far enough to remove the blower motor and blower wheel from the blower housing in the lower half of the HVAC housing. Remove the blower motor and blower wheel from the vehicle.
