Blower motor started making noise a few days ago - Toyota Yaris Forums

Thanks to everybody for the advice. I plan to look at the filter on Wednesday. Good to know that it is easy and not too expensive to replace the blower fan. The noise is intermittent, so I am hoping it is a leaf or something. I will let you know. I wonder if the filter can be washed and then put back in, at least temporarily.

If it is a bearing that is shot, I wonder if they rebuild these fans/motors. I hate to throw stuff away that can be fixed without too much trouble, although my guess is the blower is mainly metal that can be recycled.

Thanks again for the advice, I get so much from you guys! You help me be self-sufficient and save money.

Isn't this forum great?!
