You blew a fuse? Did you check them?

I did have to change my blower motor this summer, but it was working occasionaly, and one day it just never turned on again. I dont remember the price.

ok so i checked the hvac blower fuse and it was blown so i put the sunroof fuse in its place and the blower turbed on but it makes loud clanging shuttering noises as though someone is sticking something in a moving ceiling fan blade......

i looked in the manual and it doesnt look hard... you take the panel under the glove box off and its kinda under there with only three or 4 bolts on it

i'm going to take a shot in the dark and say that may there is ice in the fan do to freezing.

[Redog]

That could be true, if you have that dashboard leak

the blower motor froze, its extemely common to happen in the winter on any vehicle, no water leak needed. if u have a heated shop u can leave it in OVERNIGHT do that. if not leave ur vehicle running for a couple few hours it should come out of it. i guess if that doesn't work it could b the motor, but thats wierd that it happened overnight while it wasn't even on.

[AlbinoMonkeyRat]

if he had it running the night before, the heat attracted condensation which then froze. overnight is ample time for this to happen. heated garage or running the engine for a while before running the blower are ideas I agree with, even though it is not energy conservative.
