its a 2001 SL... and the fans suck so bad, it sounds like ther blowing, but there is hardly any air comming from the vents, but you can hear the sound of blowing so much louder than what is comming out of the vents, even on recirc, its still weak, just loud

Re: blower motor???

It also could be a bad moter. thas all it could be in there, a resister or a moter. A bad bearing can make a loud noise.

i guess i explained it poorly, i guess its not exactly the sound of the motor, but its the sound of " blowing " but theres not as much air comming out of the vent as there is sound!

Re: blower motor???

Then with that said, i think its the blower that is going bad. the noice is the bearings that are part of the fan part are bad. so i would say replace the blower. Im sorry about that.

Re: blower motor???

Or maybe it wasn't put together properly? There's a lot of plastic ducting, something may have come apart. (it did on my van)
