    when the blower stop on one of my cars , I hit or kick it to test, if it works I then ignore until it stops working then hit it again or hit some good bumps. It normally finally dies when it is below 0 and all the parts stores are closed.

  • @duanek9892

    Sometimes (rarely) a brush can get hung up in a brush holder during a motor's life as the spring feeds it forward into the commutator. With the amount of wear on both the commutator & brushes, that might have been the case here, and handling the motor can release the brush. Glad to see you get to work on one job that isn't a rust battle!

    After years in a rotating electrical shop my guess, heavy on the guess, would be a stuck brush that came loose as you moved the motor during its removal. a very careful inspection may reveal a few tiny burn or arc marks on the armature, but then those may have been polished off when you ran it after removal. At any rate its a win, take it.

    Hi Wes'. I think it was likely brushes stuck. You taking it out would free them. I hated jobs like that. Many years ago, I worked in a Mazda dealership. Loved it. I got sent on all their courses, and loved working on them, as it usually kept me busy and away from the humdrum garage jobs. I really hated taking out dashes and plastic panels. You are so much more laid back though than I was then. I used to get frazzled with jobs like that, and I kinda think the boss new it. Possibly why I got left alone lol. Great video and the two birds looked great too.

    For context, the 4 of us spent 5 minutes on our hands and knees today locating a spring that "pinged", after the tech disassembling the thing (a current clamp) said: "I just know I'm going to lose this spring" (in jest), followed by a soft twang and "I can't believe I just did that." (there was a lot more tension on it than he thought)

Luckily we were going slower maybe 35-40 when my brother said 'Look there's a tire going up the road and he slowed down where there the left front started to sink when we realized it was his car. Of course, no jack, but me & the 2 friends lifted the car up as he put the tire back on with 3 nuts stolen from the other wheels. It was pretty funny even back then. Thanks for sharing.

    I think my brother was driving a Bronco when one of his wheels fell off. He was pulling a boat that may have been a bit too heavy, which may have helped save the rig from a head on by allowing him to still steer with only one wheel and a brake rotor.
    The "freed" wheel also missed the 'head on' by several feet.

    Could be a of the kind that the soldered-component TV sets had. Fine for a few years and then trouble. Tapping can start-stop things. My version was in a FORD car where the solder was present on both sides of the contact pin but not between. One old TV set could be helped by vacuum cleaning the circuit boards among the valves, for which the access is electrically very dangerous. A TV viewer had quick results by stamping hard on the wooden floor. That TV also showed an interference pattern when the oil-firing was not working properly. Then there was the dish-washer ...... {UK English]

    Hey Wes, Happy Thanksgiving to y'all 👍
    It's a shame if you have to go by book times bro, but for a straight forward job like this, understandable you can't charge a great deal. Diag time should be a min 1/2hr-1hr or more depending on the diag, and always try to charge something for your 'parts person hat' (however that be) it still costs you time, fuel etc. Also don't forget a little from each job should try to cover some of Tim Taylor's cost (you know who I mean) it can take quite a few jobs to recover those outlays, and it all comes out of your pocket over the years.
    Also, for any GM vehicle repair nowadays..(even though it's not your customer's fault)....Double labour charge, and you'll still be cheaper than the dealer... It's to make up a little for stupid, difficult to work on, cheap junk..hopefully your customer still comes back, but with a Toyota instead..lol😂

    Brushes were probably sticking in their slides. Chances are if you had given it a swift kick before you took it apart, it would've starting working for a while.
    A lot of times those motors get worn and start to draw too much power, I've done a couple where either the plug on the blower controller was melted, or the blower connector itself was smoked. GM really skimped on the wiring for those, sometimes even a wrapper on the blower cage can cause them to melt.

    I have taken apart lots of blower motors and sometimes it is stuck motor bearings, worn bearings or a hung up carbon brush because of dirty brush holders. Other times it's a worn out motor if everything else is good. My experience hope this helps and next time before you take the motor out give it a whack with a screwdriver handle and see if it starts working then it's a stuck brush and it will happen again so you are better off replacing the motor. No need for a comeback.

    I had a Carter Electric fuel pump on my boat years ago that quit working after only one ski season , had to cut it open as it was a sealed unit and found the brushes just stuck in the holder and that was it .

    I always bill a minimum of an hour to diagnose a problem. As a rule I will typically unplug whatever it is and plug it back in. Amazing how often that "fixes" the problem.
    Thanks Wes. Hope you ate too much turkey and got a good nap in.

      Yeah. I did try that, but I guess the issue could have been at the other end of the pigtail.

    First one of that vintage I've seen with the temp and blower control labels still intact. Around here they're always scratched off already

    My 98 Ranger driver side automatic climate control system consists of a manual crank window assembly and a sliding rear window.

      @@WatchWesWork I don't mean the video was boring or anything negative, you just can't stick a dolled up Mrs Wes at the intro to a video and expect anyone to give you their full attention...
