Hyundai Elantra 2003 fan blower
The blower has stopped working. Noting works at any speed. That's a
very bad moment -20°C. Where should i look first for this trouble? What are the common parts that may cause this problem? Thanks. |

This evening when searching for the problem i gave a knock on the fan motor and it started again! It seems to be an intermittent contact problem. Somebody have an idea? Thanks again... |

What you're faced with is sort of obvious, but you're asking for suggestions. No offense, but that implies that you don't really have the basics to go any further. You'd probably be way better served by simply taking it to a garage. -- -Mike- mmarlowREMOVE@alltel.net |

Off hand at -20 if you had some moisture in the brsh holder and it froze the motor would run until the brush wear created enough gap. Knocking on the motor added a little more force to the brush holder spring and reset them to contact the armature. The question is if the "repair" will last or if you need to rebuild/replace the fan motor. It seems to be getting ever harder to get parts like brushes so you will probably get stuck with replace. Teh thing to do now is give it a bit of time and maybe invest in one of those 12 v heater fans. ;-) |
