You lost me on that one. The blower motor is in the vehicle. What you mentioned is under the hood. Here are directions. The center consol needs to be removed or at least slid back. Here are the directions I found for a 2000 Explorer.
1. Remove the floor console.
2. Remove the coin tray.
3. Remove the screws and the console insert.
4. Remove the screw and the console lid together with the hinge.
5. Remove the screws.
6. Open the rear cup holder. Remove the screws.
7. Remove the two screws.

14. Remove the nuts.
15. Remove the screws.
16. Remove the two screws.
