Blower Motor
The blower motor is the fan that pushes air through your heater and AC and out of the vents. We list 119 blower motors from $26 to $300 for 1967-2022 vehicles. Chevrolet leads with the Silverado 2500 HD, Silverado 1500, Camaro, Malibu and Impala, and Dodge follows with the Ram 1500 and Dakota.

Signs the blower is failing
The blower motor sits in the HVAC housing, usually behind the glove box on the passenger side. It spins a cage style fan wheel that moves air across the heater core and evaporator.
Common signs include no airflow at any speed, weak airflow, a squeal, rattle or ticking from behind the dash, and a motor that works only when you tap the housing. If the fan works on high but not on lower speeds, the blower motor resistor is the more likely problem.
Motor with or without wheel
Many of our blower motors come with the fan wheel already fitted, which saves you moving the old wheel and balancing it. Check the listing for the cage wheel note.
Some trucks and SUVs have both front and rear blowers, and our listings name the front position where it applies. Compare the mounting flange, the number of screws and the connector with your old motor. Brands include TYC, Four Seasons, AC Delco, SKP and API.
Fitment and install
Use the vehicle selector and read the fitment table for climate control type and trim. Manual and automatic systems can use different motors.
Disconnect the battery or pull the fuse before unplugging the motor. Remove the lower dash panel or glove box, unplug the connector, and remove the screws. Clear any leaves or debris from the housing, since debris is a common cause of noise. Replace a dirty cabin filter at the same time.
Blower Motor questions
Why does my blower only work on high?
That usually points to a failed blower motor resistor, not the motor. The high setting often bypasses the resistor, so the motor still runs.
What causes a blower motor to squeal?
Worn motor bearings are a common cause. Leaves or debris touching the fan wheel can also make noise, so check the housing first.
Do I need to replace the resistor with the blower motor?
Not always, but a motor that drew too much current can damage the resistor. If the resistor shows burn marks, replace both.
