Are you really sure it's the bower motor? The problem is usually the BCM.

BTW... The shop manual says to remove the clip and take off the cage.

Try hooking the blower motor up, turn on the fan and tap the BCM. I bet the motor comes on.

Thanx for all the input.. it was the bcm..why does it always gotta be the software before the hardware?? Dam wheel gave me a bloody knuckle and chipped polish.

For future reference, cage removal pretty much requires 2 people, one holds the cage, the other taps the motor shaft with a punch and hammer. They are stuck on pretty good, but that gets em apart every time.

I HATE it when that happens.

@ whatsupdohc: Lol.. I'm laughing now but a busted, frost bitten knuckle AND chipped polish in one day was enough for me. And, my neighbor decided to watch me work. Now I HATE that!

I'd send you a repaired one for $35.00..... just send the old one back.

Just an FYI... the new from Ford will fail again., just like the LCMs and EATC's

@fastblacmerc: awesome, that'll do fine.. i will pm u when I'm ready to make a deal.

@ the OP: Jim does excellent work and has been helping members here for years. I have one of his LCMs...

I changed the BCM in my 99 Town Car only to find out it was the blower motor. All while in the Florida heat and humidity in July. Arghhhh!
