Re: 87 Chevy Blower mortor

blower motor is very simple and inexpensive to replace. you can do in your self. its under the hood passenger side , 5 or 6 screws and 1 wire.

Re: 87 Chevy Blower mortor

It is very common for problems with the blower to be someplace ELSE, and not the blower itself. The resistor pack is a common one, I've also seen problems with the AC/Blower relay, and the electrical contacts at the heater controls as well.

Take a jumper wire and hook the power lead from the blower to +12V on your battery and see if your blower works. You don't even need to remove your blower for this, just the electrical connection.
