Thanks! I got them in and it worked. The resister was pretty easy. The hardest part was putting the new blower back in...the screw holes were too tight to hand start the screws. Holding the blower up with one hand and ratcheting the screws in with the other was tough...ended up having my son hold the blower up while I put in the screws.
Excellent video tutorial with easy to follow instructions. Thank you so much! You helped me fix my heat without an obnoxious garage bill. No more freezing on my way to work. It's working fantastic now! 😊
I recharged my AC, and it would blow cold for a minute but get warm soon after. I had a feeling it was the motor or the resistor. This video helped so much, thank you!
Thanks , showed this to my son and he was able to replace the blower resistance, Problem solved. 4/28/24. BEFORE: vent was only blowing air when I turn the knob on the highest level
I guarantee that car does not have one standard bolt or nut on it. 5/16" is the same as 8mm fortunately. Thanks for the straight to the point video. Just what I needed.
How do I know it isn’t the blower motor switch that has failed? When I turn the a/c fan controller it feels “ disconnected” , just turns with no feeling of connection. It does however cause the little light to come in indication that the a/c has been activated.
Before I start buying parts my 2011 Focus SE is blowing on 1,2,3,4 but not cool as well but on Max it's cold. Freon was added and good but before that it was lasting 2-3 weeks? Trouble shooting and a video showed pressure switch? Trying to save money as I only get paid monthly VA check. Thanks for your video 👍🏼
Ron, my blower stopped working completely at all speeds. I had it on setting 3 and was blowing fine then just stopped. (2007 SE)The fuse is good. Is this the blower motor or something else? Selector switch?
@@channelron3593 hey, i had the classic problem, first 3 speeds not working and the 4th worked perfectly. a couple days ago even the 4th speed was gone, so i changed the resistor. now the blower fuse goes out everytime i try to use the blower. any ideas?
Sir I would like to thank you very much I have not fixed mine yet but it seems pretty simple and I'm ordering my parts today and if I can I'll get back with you and let you know how it all works but it appears to be easier than I thought it would thank you very much
Mine has started nasty screeching. Was in the trade many years but 77 years old now but will attempt this if it is that easy. Hope RHD is the same procedure !
Hi Ron. I have a 2006 which works on setting 3 and 4 but not on 1 and 2. Is this likely to be a resistor pack/ or as someone else said it might be the switch on the dash. Can the resistor pack work with just 3 and 4? will the resistor pack break as a whole or can it just stop working on 1 and 2? Really pleased with the car as a whole.
Do you get a chirping sound, when the blower motor plays up?' I've got a 2006 ford focus estate and the Aircon makes a chirping cricket sound when it's on..wondered if the motor has gone faulty
excellent tutorial clear and concise. I Wish that I had found this before tackling my own 2003 Focus heater fan issue yesterday. I guess we often use different words to describe the same thing either side of the pond. I went looking for 'non working heater fan ' so your video didn't show up for me. Terrific editing by the way.
Thanks for the video. Made changing my blower and resistor very easy. The only thing you forgot to mention was the contorting I had to do to get the blower back in lol.
Rock Auto and eBay are both cheaper than Amazon today. And Amazon is doing horrible damage to our economy anyway, so bonus being able to stick it to 'em.
5/16 inch bolt or 10mm if you are not homo americanus :P why you people use imperial system in XXI century!? aaanyway good tutorial hope it will help me replacing my fan in european version of focus MK II :)
You have an art of showing people how to do things.
Thanks but still learning the process.

Sounds like my issue? 2011 Focus SE after freon boost would work 2 -3 weeks and then I switched to maximum to get cold air 😅 good luck 🤞🏼
Thanks for sharing
Awesome! Thanks for being so thorough...even down to the size of the wrench one needs.
Loved this video I order the two parts getting it done next week. You save me a trip to garage shop and money! Thank you😊
Thanks for the video.
But my question is
How do you if your blown motor is bad ?
Thanks
Well in this case it was just not Turing fast
Thanks , showed this to my son and he was able to replace the blower resistance, Problem solved. 4/28/24.
BEFORE: vent was only blowing air when I turn the knob on the highest level
How did you hold the new blower motor up while trying to get the screws into the holes at the same time in that tiny space under the dash?
Ya that is tough you can try holding or put something under it.
is it a good idea to remove neg battery cable or not necessary?

Yep you are Correct, thanks

Check fuses and make sure the Resistor is not defective?

Your Welcome!
Ron the blower turns on at 10 percent power for 30 seconds then stops working.does the blower need replacing? thanks chris
Sounds like just the resistor
Ron, my blower stopped working completely at all speeds. I had it on setting 3 and was blowing fine then just stopped. (2007 SE)The fuse is good. Is this the blower motor or something else? Selector switch?
usually this is caused by the blower resistor.

Take your time you will be fine.
How much money did you pay for the other piece with the blower motor
About $45.00 amzn.to/3LEwE7a

Yes I would agree the resistor pack would be my fist guess.
@@channelron3593 Cheers Ron.
Which was it?
does this work for an 09 focus?
Not sure they are all somewhat the same.
Thanks for the video!!!
You bet!
Thats focus mk1?

Wow! sounds like the motor ore maybe something in the unit, once you take it out, look up and see if it is clear?
Thanks boss...done in less than an hour.
Short video, right to the point. Took me 6:52 to watch the and about a 1/2 hr to install. Thank you so much!
Your welcome! Thanks for watching.
Excellent video! Thank you for taking time to explain the swap. Very well-edited too, by the way!
Thank!!

Super ! Merci l ami 😊
You are the best👊👍
Thank-you so much....very helpful.
You are welcome!
now replace the blend box! :op
I have same problem with ford focus station wagon 2010...But I cant find the fan under that lock...do anybody know where its locatied?
Don't let Amazon sell you the wrong size wiper blades with the it fits your fill in the blank.
Just spreading the word.
Great video.
Thanks for the input (:
Great video, Ron. Thank you!
Great video, very well done!
Thanks!
Great video 👍

I was looking for brands I recognized or could confirm were American companies. Most of what Amazon sells is chicom.
Thanks for the input, and thanks for supporting my channel.
