Replacement Heater Blower Fan Motor on VW Golf MK2
Having repaired the air duct flaps on my VW Golf Mk2 it became very apparent that the heater blower fan motor was struggling and making a very annoying squeaking noise when turned on. Fortunately it still worked in settings 1, 2 and 3 showing that the resistor hadn't failed. There are guides on how to lubricate the bearings on the fan motor but after removing the blower fan motor from the car the date code showing on the side was 1989 so it was the original one fitted to the Golf from new.Is it easy to replace a squeaking Heater Fan Motor on VW Golf MK2?
I decided that it made more sense to replace with a new fan motor as this one had given 25 years good service to the car and replacement fan motors were under £30. I ordered from my favourite VW Parts store - B&B Components trading as tierod69 on Ebay and the fan arrived next day - fantastic service as usual!
The dashboard was already removed from the passenger side so it was an easy switch to transfer the new blower motor into the housing. My drive home tonight will hopefully be far quieter than my drive to work this morning!
