Thanks so much for watching this video till the end!
More how to videos coming whenever I need to replace something on one of my vehicles!
See ya!
Thank you for this. Saved me prolly $200. My dad was the mechanic in the family but he’s incredibly abusive so I had to finally cut ties and I have no one to turn to with these kinds of questions anymore. Thank you. 🧡
Really helped me. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this and I love your perspective on doing what you're passionate about! Completely agree. Thanks again and keep doing what you do!
I have watched a few of these videos, you were the best. Explaining every detail. Thanks.
Dude this is awesome I'm a mom I've been riding my kids around with no air for quite a while now it's hot it's miserable I just learned that it's probably the blower motor and resistor so I went and bought them then I looked on TH-cam to find a video to see how to do it you did a fantastic job showing me I'm going to go buy the tools right now and get mine replaced so excited to be back to having air conditioning
Excellent demonstration of what is involved from start to completion.
Thank you very much!
Great job man!
You got right to it and showed me step by step and included the caution areas. I'll be installing a new fan in the near future and now I'm confident it's an easy fix.
Thanks...
Glad I could help! Let me know how it goes!!
This video is very helpful. Thanks also for making it clean: no profanity like some videos.
MrPuppified Cool! I'm glad it helped you out! I like to keep my channel family friendly! 👍
mine was slightly different but bolt heads were the same which was huge since there is not much room down there. Thanks for all the tips great video
I followed your steps precisely and it works perfectly!
Nice. I like how you go through all the steps. So much cheaper than paying my local mechanic over $100/hr to try to fix it NOT including parts. Very helpful. Thanks
You're welcome! Glad I could help you out!
Very well explained step by step. Lighting was great to see detail. Thank you!
Thanks, for such an awesome video, Man. You got right up in there for us to see all that you did. 👏
Ok big Al this is the second time you helped me out. The fan quit working today and it's a big necessity. I didn't even know where to start, Yes your video helped slot
Awesome video! This really helped me thank you
To you, my man, thank you so much for your help. Saved my life this winter. Forever grateful:)
Really liked your video: Very well explained in easy to understand language. Music a bit too loud for my taste. it really bothered my ears. Thank you so much for posting this video to help others. You're a good person.
Great video. Mine went out yesterday. Not sure if it was the cold weather but I will see today being it will be warmer.
Just what I needed. Thank You!!!!!!
Thank you for making this video. After a lot of research, I found nothing to replace my fan motor and resistor in my '05 Malibu..........must be the old style. Your setup is exactly like what's on mine. Fan was squealing and only had 2 (4 & 5) speeds on the blower. Now I have everything thanks to you. And.........btw, I'm a 71 year old female. ;)
Were did you buy new one,,and cost
That was a great video. You make it look so simple and easy that even a female can do it. I have to replace mine. So I thank you for showing me how to do it. I appreciate you taking the time to demonstrate the technique on how it's done.
you are very welcome!
You da man, Big Al! Thank you for the help.
Thanks helped me alot today helping a friend in the cold
Thanks for a well put together tutorial Al!
Went great Big Al. Blower housing packed tight with mouse nest. Thanks again.
Your very welcome, glad I was able to help you out!
video was very helpful. Thanks for the great information
Great video 👍👍👍
Hey, Big Al. I used to do stuff like that for a living. Anything accesory that you could add to a vehicle, back in the 80's and 90's. I was thinking of doing how to vids, for the stuff I know, such as window tint, air conditioning, electrical problems, ect. I think you did a great job! I will be going thru your vids, as I am always looking to increase my knowledge.
Thank you for your kind words! I figure it would help other people out if I film some of the stuff I did on my vehicles.
thanks for sharing your work on this issue with video .... i have a 2002 Malibu LS which has a fan blower issue. I found out it was a resistor issue and will soon be fixing that problem since i saw this video... thanks again.
Thank you, I'm so glad I could help you out!
thanks guy! I was afraid it was gonna be as rough as a grand prix heater core lol. ours sounds like a herd of elephants are in it.
great video ! thanks man.you help me a lot.the motor is noisy at slw speed,propably leafs in the fan.thanks again!
glad it helped you out!
Very helpful. Thank you. ☺️ I love it.
Thank you. Just wondering if the evaporator coils for the AC are accessible through that hole. Would like to spray some coil cleaner up in there
Were you able to figure this out? I need to access my evap also
thanks for the help !
Yay this is an easy fix...my fans are working when I first start my Malibu but then it sounds like grinding and they turn off so I bet this would fix that. Replaced my serpintine belt and tensioner so this will be what I fix next. 20 yes old Malibu with 120k miles. Gotta keep her on the road
Thank you!
Great video thanks I think you just saved me a ton of money !!!
That's awesome. I'm glad it helped you out and saved you money!
Im about to try replace both fan and resistor . Wish me luck i hope mine is as easy as you make it seem. Super detailed . Ill let you know if you nailed it
Just finished took me 45 minutes thanks to you .
Great to hear! I'm so glad I could help you out!!
Thank you! This really helps. My car has been overheating and the inside heat wont work. But every once in a while the heat will pop back on and the engine temp will plummet back to safe. You tjink it might be the blower motor?
awesome! seems easy enough to do. very well done i will be watching this tomorrow as i change mine out. ill let you know how it goes/ 2001 chevy malibu
I hope all goes well!
Got it done! Not sure I could have done it without this video. Thanks. Impressive angles being in that spot in your car with a light and camera I could hardly fit myself in there lol.
Yeah it was a little tight in there! Made it take longer for me to get the job done but it was worth it for the video. hahaha I'm glad this video helped you out to get this done. That is why I make these videos!
Did not realize it would be that easy. Shouldn't take me that long once my parts guy gets me the right part and is no longer sick.
Glad I could help! Let me know how it works out for you!
Circuit: Would you by any chance have the circuit diagram for the Switch, Blower Resistor and Blower?
Ok.
I pulled the fan out!
No debris of any kind obstructing! Hooked fan directly to battery. Works fine, hauls ass!
Maybe resistor?
Thanks. Doing it tomorrow.
Awesome! Let me know how it goes!
only thing better than this video is that hair!! lol great video man appreciate it.
BUTLERSESCAPE Thanks man! I how the video helped you! I will be going blonde again this summer.
Big Al: For us big dudes, would it be helpful to remove the passenger seat for more room? The seat is fairly easy to take out. Thanks!
My blower will not work on any speed ,how did you determine that your problem was the blower motor and not the resistor pack or both
I have checked the blower fuse
Do you have a trouble shooting video ? Thanks in advance .well done video I know I can replace the blower I just need to make sure that is the problem before I start buying or parts also.
Is there a way to test the blower motor or the restrictor before you tear them all the way to completely apart and out of the car to determine which one is bad
How about heater core? Can you cheat it out going under the dash like this?
My Malibu blower does not blow on any speed , how did you determine it was the blower motor and not the resistor or both ?
Put new blower motor in but doesnt come on. Ac clutch engages so switch is good any ideas?
HI Big Al Thank you for the helpful video, But I do have a question I installed new resistor new motor but my fan setting#5 doesnt work tried 2 new resistors any ideas Thank You ohh PS your blower motor seems to sound alot more powerful then mine is there different ones that work Thanks again 1998 chevy malibu
I'm not sure if you monitor these comments anymore. If you do, do you have any tips on how to tell if it's a resistor or a blower issue? All I can say is that my fan will cut in and out and sound all warbly and rough at times. I'm guessing it's the blower, but I figure I might as well ask.
Im going to be doing mine...and ima girl. Wish me luck.
How can you tell if just the blower motor, just the resistor or both need to be replaced???
usually if it's just the resistor, some of the fan speeds will work. to be sure if it's the fan and not the resistor you should run constant power thru it after unplugging it.
Big Al Hoffman Vlogs Yeah... it was running on only the last 3 of 5 speeds and off. I got both of the parts (resistor and blower motor) for $30 so I ended up getting both just in case. It was just the resistor. The blower itself was fine but I’m keeping it anyway just in case I need it down the road.
Fuck man....THANK YOU.
Where u from
@Big Al Hoffman Vlogs Thanks Big Al
2005 malibu is way different
This was the worst job I have ever done lol I think I said the f word like 176 times during this job today
My mechanic want over $350.00 if the blower is the problem
Why does everyone have to have shit techno music in their videos?
