WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
On vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment and possible personal injury or death.
- Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
- Remove the instrument panel silencer from the passenger side of the instrument panel. (Refer to REMOVAL )
- Disconnect the wire harness connector from the blower motor. See Fig 1.
- Remove the three screws that secure the blower motor to the HVAC housing.
- Remove the blower motor from the HVAC housing by rotating and tilting the motor as needed for clearance of the blower wheel.
