Just wanted to thank you for a clear helpful video. My dad passed away last year and he usually did these type of easy repairs for me but your video actually gave me confidence that I could do it myself and I DID!! :-)
Great to the point video. I ordered mine on EBAY $45 It arrived today 2/12/22 and installed it in 15min. I disconnected the wire first before the screws. Thank you so much ✊🏼💪🏼🙏🏼✌🏼😁
Excellent video. Thanks for posting. My 2015 is starting to develop a squeak. I might go with an aftermarket fan and your video will save me some time.
Great video. Thank you. I might need to replace blower motor soon because it is making louder noise as I increase the fan speed, like a Cessna propeller 🙂 It could be some leaves stuck in there, I need to take it out and see.
@@DIYGuyUSA still has different speeds but the max just doesn't feel as strong as it used to be. I just replaced it and it feels the same.. Is something else going on with my AC?
@@eeeek5238 If the air is blowing but not cold then you most likely have a leak. It should be 45 degrees or colder when coming out of the vents. If the force/speed of the air coming out is low, then I’m not quite sure what would cause that.
Before replacing blower motor, make sure there's no dibri, excessive dirt, leaves stuck in the cage of the motor. I've seen that and it only takes to clean it. After removing blower motor, spin the cage and listen for excessive noise which indicates worn out bearings.
Our 2014 Civic LX blower motor works intermittently. Sometimes runs on high just fine. Sometimes not at all. Sometimes barely blows on any setting. I thought maybe it was the resistor but it wasn't. Blower never sounds weird. Always sounds like it did when car was brand new. What should I look for next? Cools just fine. Thanks for the video
I have the same issue that you describe on my 14 civic. I really wish to know what it is before I buy any new part. Did you fix your issue? Was it the actual motor which was faulty?
Do you have a video of the sound it was making before you replaced it? I think this is my current issue but it’s not so much a squeak as a wurring noise that has turned into it barely blowing now.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a video that has the sound, but I believe it is more of a squeak because the bearings are worn out. Yours could be a different issue such as a bad blower motor resistor.
I have a 2017 civic. AC is still cold but the blower isn't blowing as hard as it should. SHould I replace the blower motor or could it be something else?
It is possible it could be the blower motor. Does it change to different speeds properly? If not, it could be the blower motor resistor. It probably would require a little more research.
TY My 2013 Civic motor has been making somewhat quiet high pitch sound, from day one. Honda told me I'm hearing things and refused to replace it. My wife isn't bothered by it, I'm going bonkers every time I drive the car. My question, would it be just the fan that would make this sound or the motor itself?
I haven’t done it on this car, but I believe it is to the left of where the fan assembly is underneath the glovebox. It should have a plug for the fan.
I have a rhythmic chirping sound that seems to come from my passenger side AC fans. The sound stops as soon as I turn the fan to off, and starts with the fan on even if the AC is off. Do you think replacing this part would fix that?
If it is this fan, you would be able to hear it without the the engine running. Just have the a/c going. It should be just a squeaky bearing. Otherwise, it could be something else depending on the sound.
@@kaiburns4257 it could be that something fell down into the fan area. If twigs, or other debris is near the engine compartment, maybe a bump made something fall into it. It is fairly easy to remove the fan and check.

Sorry to hear about your loss. I’m glad this video helped and hopefully you can do some more projects.
I was just looking at taking out the blower motor in my 2015 Honda Civic. I came across this video and it is exactly what I needed to see.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video. 29 minutes and done. One of the easiest DIY fixes I've done.
Thanks! I'm glad it was helpful.

Thanks. Glad you were able to get it fixed.
Excellent video. Thanks for posting. My 2015 is starting to develop a squeak. I might go with an aftermarket fan and your video will save me some time.
Good luck. I hope it helps. It is actually pretty straightforward on this car once you know where the screws are located.
Great video. Just finished replacing mine on a 2013 Civic Si sedan. This helped a lot!
Thanks. Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Thank you.

Yes, it sounds like something in the fan, but you can remove it and easily check
I Did It!!! It worked!!!!
Thanks sooo much. I got the leaves out and its fixed! Thanks for the great easy to understand video!!!!
Glad to hear it worked out
@@DIYGuyUSA my civic isn’t blowing hard like it used to. Will changing the blower motor fix this?
@@eeeek5238 Does the blower motor still have different speeds or is it only blowing at a single speed?

Thanks for this! You saved me a trip to the shop!
Great! Glad it was helpful
Oh wow! Been looking for a video for my Honda! Ima give it a try thanks for the video!
Definitely worth trying if you have a few of the simple tools shown in the video. It is pretty easy. Good luck.
Thx man. Leaves got in mine and Im going to use ur vid to try and fix it myself!
Great video! You inspired me to repair it myself :)
Glad it was helpful!
Very good video, I may give this a try on my 2014 Honda Civic.
Thanks. It is fairly easy to accomplish with basic tools.

I have not had that problem with this car but another car had similar issues. Sounds like the blower motor resistor or possibly a relay.
I have the same issue that you describe on my 14 civic. I really wish to know what it is before I buy any new part. Did you fix your issue? Was it the actual motor which was faulty?
@@dsilva158 I replaced the blower motor and that fixed my issues.
@@ToddWhirley thank you for the info. Will go right away to buy the blower motor.
@@dsilva158 My 2015 is doing the exact same thing. Guess I’ll be buying a motor too.
Do you have a video of the sound it was making before you replaced it? I think this is my current issue but it’s not so much a squeak as a wurring noise that has turned into it barely blowing now.

Anyone can confirm if the model he is referencing is compatible with honda civic 2012?

It is possible it could be the blower motor. Does it change to different speeds properly? If not, it could be the blower motor resistor. It probably would require a little more research.
I have 2012 lx 4 door... is this compatible? Mine started making whirrring sounds and yep somethings wrong...
Yes, if you check the fit on that website in the comments, it does show it is compatible with 2012 LX 2-door.
What number philips? 3?
Sorry. But I don’t remember if it was 2 or 3
Could they stop using star nuts plz?
Torx?
TY
My 2013 Civic motor has been making somewhat quiet high pitch sound, from day one. Honda told me I'm hearing things and refused to replace it. My wife isn't bothered by it, I'm going bonkers every time I drive the car.
My question, would it be just the fan that would make this sound or the motor itself?
Does the sound go away when you turn off the fan? If so, then it is probably caused by this. Fan and motor are one unit
Thank you .
I also need to replace my motor resistor. Where can I find it?
I haven’t done it on this car, but I believe it is to the left of where the fan assembly is underneath the glovebox. It should have a plug for the fan.
My ac keeps pulsating. like it'll switch from blowing fast and slow. Could this be the problem?
This fix is just for a squeaky fan. Yours sounds like it could more electrical such as the switch resistor or a bad relay.
I have a rhythmic chirping sound that seems to come from my passenger side AC fans. The sound stops as soon as I turn the fan to off, and starts with the fan on even if the AC is off. Do you think replacing this part would fix that?
If the chirping sound is related to the speed of the fan, then I would say it is probably worth replacing.
Thank you!
My car hit a massive pothole and the fans got really loud
If it is this fan, you would be able to hear it without the the engine running. Just have the a/c going. It should be just a squeaky bearing. Otherwise, it could be something else depending on the sound.
@@DIYGuyUSA I hear it with just the fan on, regardless of engine being on or setting, I'm worried the housing got bent maybe?
@@kaiburns4257 it could be that something fell down into the fan area. If twigs, or other debris is near the engine compartment, maybe a bump made something fall into it. It is fairly easy to remove the fan and check.
@@DIYGuyUSA okay I'll be sure to take a look though first thank you so much for the help
Hey
Mine is not coming on unless i kick it then it comes on is that my motor?lol
That sounds like it may be the motor or a loose electrical connection.
Same on mine.
