What will this AC repair set me back?

mrnickleye · 06-06-2007, 03:26 AM

My AC blows cold but the fan doesn't always blow. The air coming out is always cold but it doesn't blow hard very often, even if I put it manually on High. I can hear the fan turning slowly in the dash. Any thoughts on what the problem is?[/QUOTE]

Sounds like your fan motor brushes are worn out. Works some, sometimes.

You can get an aftermarket blower motor,
CARQUEST/FOUR SEASONS Part #208949 New Blower Motor Without Wheel 86-92 List $63.12 Net $37.88

(you'll pay between net & list)

or pay more from Toyota.

Also check this info out, as it may also be part of the problem.

Thanks for the link. I just dropped it off at my mechanic tonight. He's going to go over the entire car tomorrow to tell me the current state of everything I need to care about. (He's doing this for free because I bring all my cars to him.) I'll tell him about the things I read in this and the other thread. In the past, he has tried very hard to avoid having me spend money unless I have to because he knows he's going to get my business either way so if I tell him about these he'll check them out first.
