Replace the blower motor in a 2009–2014 Ford F-150 by lowering the glove box area, disconnecting the motor, and reinstalling the new unit and trim panels.
Tools you will need
- 7mm socket and ratchet
- 8mm socket and ratchet
- Trim clip tool
Parts and supplies
- Blower motor
Steps
- Lower the glove compartment
Remove the three 7mm fasteners around the glove compartment while leaving it latched. Ease the compartment out of its opening and set it aside without straining its hinges or stops.
- Remove the lower trim panel
Use a trim clip tool to release the two retainers holding the felt panel beneath the glove compartment. Lower the panel enough to reach the blower motor wiring and fasteners.
- Remove the blower motor
Disconnect the motor's electrical plug by releasing its lock. Remove the motor mounting bolts with an 8mm socket, then rotate and lower the motor carefully from the housing.
- Install the replacement motor
Position the new motor in the housing and align its mounting holes. Start the bolts by hand and tighten them securely to the vehicle's specification, then reconnect the electrical plug until its latch engages.
- Reassemble the glove box area
Fit the felt panel back over its support and press both clips into place. Align the glove compartment, reinstall its fasteners, and check that it opens and closes normally.
Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
