How to remove heater fan 95 pickup
95 Chevy K2500. I need to replace the heater blower fan. It's under
the dash on the passenger side below glove compartment. I has a rubber cover over it. I cant seem to figure out how to remove that rubber cover. Someone told me to remove the glove compartment. Removing that seems more difficult than the blower itself, since the screws are located real low under the door, which can not be opened beyond a certain point. Can anyone tell me step by step how to do this? Thanks |

Can anyone tell me step by step how to do this? Not had to do it so don't know directly, but I've found that there's a Utub video for virtually anything you search for...most of them have been enough to figure it out with (or to realize that is _not_ the way in a couple of instances; keep looking ). Yes, do search YouTube... it's amazing what you can find now. And a suggestion... find and grab a factory shop manual (often they come a set these days) for your vehicle/s. They can really save the day sometime; even if it's a job you decide not to tackle, at least you can read up on whats involved. Also, should you ever buy a new vehicle, negotiate a set in as part of the deal... most of the time you can do it. (But I hear printed manuals might soon be going the way of the nixie tube... If/when you sell the vehicle, the manuals are a good selling point, if you scrap or otherwise lose it, manuals sell well on eBay or Craigs List. Good luck with the blower motor! Erik |

Toyota's manuals arent' as good as American cars, imnsho. There's even a warning in front of the Toyota that says roughly, Don't expect to fix this car by using these manuals. I'm going back to American cars next time. |

Can anyone tell me step by step how to do this? Thanks Have you tried googling this? It's amazing how many very specific topics are out there for car repair, both youtube and text. Mostly youtube but it's worth it if it's just what you want. Omit the year and see what years it gives you. I'm sure pickups were the same for several years in a row. I've googled for nearly 4 hours (using other search engines too). Did not find ****. I did find several of those mostly worthless discussion groups where someone asked this same questiona and no one provided any useful help, or nothing at all. Got a few u-tube videos showing how to change one under the hood. Mine is under the dash. If mine was under the hood, it would have been changed in 10 minutes. Under the dash, therre is no room to get to the damn thing, and removing that glove box seems harder than the blower. 4 hours later, I've found nothing....... |

Lots of youtube stuff: http://tinyurl.com/mbxxte8 It's probably stuff you've already seen but who knows. |

Obviously you are too stupid to use google which indicates you are already in over your head.
Maybe that is why you are stuck with a piece of **** Chevy. |

Since you have not yet gotten any helpful replies and the truck is almost 20 years old you might as well use the "universal philo solution" : Sawzall then duct tape it all back together. Use the good, metalized duck tape though . I think my co-worker did that on his Blazers now that you mention it. He might've done it from the engine side but I don't remember. |

I get the manuals on DVD - a lot cheaper than print. That's an idea, but I do like having them in print. I add the 100+ dollars to the cost of the car. Then it seems cheaper. |
