Paul thanks for the response on my recirculate motor question a couple days ago.

I took your advice and tried to remove it again, but I'm still having trouble. It looks to me like the motor is screwed to a metal bracket with those small machine screws. One of the screws is behind the motor and you can't reach it, so that option is out.

The next option appears to be to remove the bracket with the motor attached, which is what I think you did. The problem is that it looks like it's held on by two bolts. One is in plain view a snap to get off. The other one seems to be sandwiched between the bracket and the metal anchor point. I can't find any way of reaching it. It's very hard to see and took me a long time to find, and I'm not even sure if it really is involved in holding the motor in.

You mentioned that it's just two bolts to remove that are pretty accessible, but I can't figure any way of getting enough access to remove the motor bolts/screws. It seems the only way might be to remove the evaporator housing, which seems pretty tough because of a couple phillips screws way under the cowling that are almost impossible to reach. Besides, it seems you might have to remove the refrigerant lines to do that. I'm not sure, though that this would even provide enough access.

Can you explain in more detail how you got yours out and where exactly the 2nd bolt is? You mentioned that you removed all the screws on the motor even though not entirely necessary, but how did you reach the ones behind it? Did you remove any of the plastic evaporator housing to get at it?

Thanks for any additonal help you (or anyone else whose done this) can provide!
