Where to buy a/c fan (blower) motor?


Greetings again to all,

After our recent quick trip to the tip (not rubbish - of Australia!), and the 1200km of corrugated dirt roads that it entailed, our a/c fan blower motor (the one under the dash, that blows the cool air in your face) has finally died. Pulled it to bits, and the commutator is worn out.

$730.00 new from local dealer on the Atherton Tablelands! emoticon Ridiculous for a silly little 12v motor!

Second hand available from Brisbane area for about $250 including freight, but may be nearly as worn as mine was. All wreckers spoken to say that they're selling lots of them recently - must all be wearing out around the same time.

New from China on Ebay for about $110. Can actually buy a batch of 10 of them, if I wanted to! Has anyone thought of buying ten, and selling them locally for $150 - $200 each? You'd have at least one customer! And as there as thousands of T30s on the road with their fan motors wearing out I think it's a good market niche.

So my questions:

1. Does anyone know what other models this particular fan motor was used on? Would widen my range looking for second hand. Someone on Ebay is advertising just the fan, not including the motor, and says it fits D22 Navara, N15 Pulsar & T30 Xtrail.

2. Does anyone sell new aftermarket fan motors?

3. Does anyone have a good used one for a reasonable price?

Thanks for any thoughts.

Re:


Check THIS post for details and maybe get in touch with the member in question to get his feedback on the Chinese blower motor. For that kind of money, you might as well buy a whole box and keep changing them every year emoticon

Thanks heaps Jalalski, looks great. Will pm the poster, but will likely get the motor, or 10, and sell them on Ebay! emoticon
