I need to replace my blower motor, as my new blower switch didn't seem to remedy the air flow problem (no strong flow of air with the blower switch on high). I already cut a a square hole in the HVAC suitcase, and cleaned out all the leaves and junk in there. So that's no the issue.
I am confused on the price discrepency on the Advance Auto's site. Seems like blower motors range in price from $76 to $27. Here's the Advance Auto listing of blower motors http://tinyurl.com/yzk643, for my 93 W250. Would you all recommend going with a $27 range blower motor? If the Seimens unit for $76 was a better blower motor, and lasts longer, I would definitly go with that. But the way things are these days, the Seimens motor is probably also manufactured in Mexico or China??? Any input is appreciated as always!

I have the $27 one. If it fails I'm still ahead.

2stroke

did u check the resistor also?

BRUISER

Here is the correct "Advance Auto" Part # 5014476 = $25.94
Here is the manufacture part # 35474

either should get you the corect motor

Dave, I guess your right there! My guess is the Siemen's for $76 is made overseas. The $27 unit is probably just as good, so that's what I'll order. 2stroke, no I haven't check the resister. I am pretty much sure it's the blower motor, as it is oem. Bruiser, thank's for the part #'s!

If you have not had the blower out yet, you might have sucked up some trash into the blower wheel.
I have sucked in paper napkins and plastic grocery bags into the passenger side floor vent.
I have replaced my blower motor a few times already and I have noticed the aftermarket motors are not as high of an RPM as the OEM was and they seem to vary with the remanufactured ones, I have rejected a few out of the box..

Also check your fuse block for signs of overheated fuses or wires.
