Before replacing a blower motor in a 1995 Dodge Caravan, check the electrical connector to the motor for power. The majority of time the blower motor resister fails before the blower. That is not to say the blowers don’t fail, however it is easy to condemn the motor when in reality the resister failed. Check the motor electrical connector with the key on and the fan switch on. There should be power at one terminal of the blower motor electrical connector. If there is power, the motor is bad. If no power is found, check the electrical connector on the resister, which is just an inch to the left of the blower motor. If the resister has power, it has failed. If there is no power to the resister, the control panel or fuse is bad.
Remove the passenger side under dash cover using the 7mm nut driver to remove the screws.
Grab the carpet at the passenger side kick panel. Pull the carpet down about half way to the floor. This will make room for the blower motor to come out of the housing completely. If the carpet is left in place, the motor will come down, but the squirrel cage or fan only comes out a little over half way. The fan must be protected since the new motor does not come with a fan; the old fan must be transferred to the new motor.
Disconnect the electrical connector on the blower motor.
Remove the screws from the blower motor. Pull the rubber cooling hose out of the housing. Lower the fan motor and carefully angle it enough to withdraw it completely from the housing.
