Help My windshield has broken to smalls pieces and well i had to take it off by my self but the problem is some of the glass went to the ac duct do you think that the glasses might mess up the blower motor and the ac and if possible how can i make sure all the glass is out Is it ok if I turn the ac on or the heater to blow it out

Be glad u no doctor: when people eat glass shards... no way to detect.

U will be picking pieces five years from now - from sticking valves, nonrotating blowers & whatever. The only way is to 'explode' all off and vacuum. And repeat it from time to time.

Light side: You'll becom an dash R/R expert! ...and u will learn how many screws can be thrown off and still have dash working.

Been there...

I mean if one wants to become trouble free, all has to be dismantled, inspected and vacuumed.

If it works now, fine. But then one day one bit falls and jams (guess what). IF that becomes repetitious, annoying enough: open all, vacuum.

Turn the question around: If they work, you know.

The good thing is that glass is insulator, it itself will not cause any el shorts eg, fire hazard.
