Remove windscreen wiper arms and rubber seals
Remove rear compartment weather-stripping.
note two clips
on either side
Undo two screw clips on either side of the scuttle
cover and remove. Lift from the front edge and pull away
from the windscreen to "unclip" from the rear retaining clips
Take care to feed the hood release cable
Remove Wiper motor and linkage
Remove the wiper motor bracket
NOTE: the 3rd bolt in the back does not need
to come all the way out
Unclip and remove the blower motor frame
Clips on either side
Take the wiring off the motor cover by releasing the clips (one on either side)
& cutting any wire ties as needed
Unscrew the blower motor cover
unplug the wiring to the motor, and move
the cover to the side. Don't drop
the screws or you'll be fishing them out of the pollen filter.
Take the wiring out of the cover by pulling out the rubber plug. Pull the back
panel in front of the motor forward to allow room to remove the motor. Wear
gloves, the edge is fairly sharp. The Haynes manual recommends a ratchet strap,
but I was able to manually pull it forward enough. If you bring the blower motor
up and to the left you have a little more room.
The motor ( motor1.jpg) is very serviceable surprisingly.
I think I had a stuck brush
I removed the brushes (brushremove.jpg)
and cleaned the commutator contacts with electrical contact cleaner. My motor
worked fine after that.
Reinstall is simply the reversal.
