- How to remove the blower motor & cage from your Geo Tracker or Suzuki Sidekick. Our previous videos show how to repair the fan speed switch and the resistor - the blower motor is the last component that may need inspections or replacement to get your heater working at full strength
Thanks for doing this video! I had to take my blower motor out, not because it didn't work but because a damn mouse got in the squirrel cage. I got in it one morning and started it up and my blower motor made this thumping sound and I'm like what the crap. Turned it off and back on and the same sound. Took the blower motor out and had a mouse that was inside of the blower wheel. Looks like its a straight path to the blower wheel if you heater is set to recirculate instead of outside air. I have had the car for 5 years and this is the first time that's happened to me. Fast forward a few months and sure enough go to start the car to go to work and it happened again, grrr! Funny thing, that afternoon when I went to go home from work I see a dead mouse on my floorboard. I thought can I be that lucky? sure enough it was alive enough after its ride in the blower wheel to get back out and conveniently die on my floor board. When its -10 to -20 below you need all the heat you can get so I don't like to run outside air when its that cold but have taken the chance and lost twice so far. Now its warm enough I can leave it set to outside air and maybe be safer? So after this novel, my question is, is there a certain place/s that a mouse could be getting in my 94 Tracker two door convertible? I must have a hole somewhere that I need to plug. Thanks again!!
Just bought a 1995 Sidekick JLX. I have learned so much. And video's are enjoyable. Thank you so much from So California. I save all your videos. Since i subscribe. Thanks yeeehaaa😂
Thanks for watching! 😀
After this video, my Tracker Blows! Still can't believe how mint that rig is...
I know I'm all over the place on your channel right now, my apologies 😂 but, i got my Tracker a little over a month ago. Overall, she's pretty sound. But, I have to repair the shifter assembly, fix an oil pan leak, and I'm not sure if it's my condenser or what, but my AC decided today to make an EHHHHHHHHHH noise right before it stopped putting out air. Then it dawned on me. Yes, we've had a lot of rain lately, but that puddle in the floorboard could also be from the DADGUM AC 😩😩😩😩😩😩 I'm not sure if the condenser went out, or if maybe it was the blower motor, maybe my dang blades were cracked on the fan and it somehow caused it to lock up, but basically, you're my new, and quite possibly favorite, mechanic friend. Everything says Suzuki under the hood, dash, and even underneath the damned thing. I've had plenty of Chevy trucks, but never one with strictly labeled "Suzuki" parts 😂 so here we are. I know not everything will be exactly the same, but I Do know that a lot of it will be relatively similar nonetheless. So, all that to say, Hi new best friend! 😂
you're awesome. my motor started making a funny buzzing noise and had seriously reduced output. just replace the dying made in china motor with a quality Canuck motor and what a world of difference. Also about 20 years worth of crud cleaned out from the evaporator. Thanks for the vids man!
Great to hear you're enjoying the videos, thanks for watching!
How much of this applies to a 1994 Geo Metro blower motor? Your videos are by far the best when it comes to Suzuki repair.
Sorry have no experience with the Geo Metro model but it should be similar process
On a 96+ the tops are 10 mm and there's a duct in the way ... not to mention the air bag... any suggestions on the top 10 mm with the duct in the way?
Every one of your videos gets me excited about Trackers. Thanks for putting out these great references that I'm sure I'll be using when I finally pull the trigger on one.
Getcha One!
Hi, I appreciate your video(it got me 3/4's of the way there, but you forgot some Suzuki's have some thing attached to the side of the housing held on by 2 phillips screws at the bottom and the housing definitely will NOT come out with this attached. That was ok as I got the motor out without removing the whole housing which seemed better anyway. Took a long time(thank god for swivel extensions).
Great job! Easy to follow !
Thanks for watching!
Dig these helpful videos. Possible to do this for the 96+ Tracker?
Great video.
Is posible to remove just the blower motor without removing the Cage?
Great video. I went to go do the same on my 97 Geo tracker, but it looks like the airbag hardware is in the way of the top 2 10mm screws. Any suggestions for how I could get up into that really tight space?
This video blows ! Your videos are always awesome. Keep them coming
Glad you like them!
Sup there
I recently replaced the blower motor on a 01 suzuki vitara also replaced the resistor, air is blowing auper good and ia super cold but 30 mins after smell like burn, i toch the blower and is HOT
do you know what is possibly causing it?
Thanks in advance
Thank You So Much Brother 😊
How do you get the white plastic cable clipped back into the blower motor housing clip? I fought with it a lot and it would not stay put at all.
I have 2002 Grand Vitara 4x4. The blower cage was FULL of small nuts some critter collected!
They always find a way in 🐀
I was driving down the road. My blower started making noise. I thought you were joking about it but a mouse got in there while it was running. Thanks for the info.
Happens more often than people would think! Glad you were able to get it cleaned out 👍🏼
very good video, could you help me, I want to charge refrigerant to my sidekic esport 1996, but I can't find the discharge port, to be able to check the pressure, in advance I appreciate the support.
my heater smells like burning oil or hot plastic when I turn it on. do you know what could be causing that?
muchas gracias amigo!!
where can I get just the blower wheel?
Sir can you tell me why the head light warning buzzer is wired to that blower motor? The other lead goes from the 2 pin buzzer goes to head light switch .
So thats why it confuse me useing resistor a path to ground??.
Hey Tony, any word on the 1992 geo tracker speedo cable re and re video ? , mine is flopping a bit and may just need a lube :)
Just had the heater core replaced and now the air vent for recirc or fresh does not move ? The vent seems to work when I get my hand back there but is there something I missed installing the dashboard. I have the 98 Sport no air conditioning but somewhat different than the blower you took out. Anyone with a FSM and can point out a picture of the configuration. Suzuki forum only has blower removal not cables to and from.
I have a question,my 88 samurai has a electrical problem,if I hit the gas hard or put to much into it going up stuff it "pops" the spark plug cables that go to the distributor and then ONE wire goes on this round thing at the back off the engine mounted above it,that is what "pops off" please help me because it's driving me crazy.ps I have a brain injury and at times I can't write or say what things are,so I apologize if only you could take a pic and send it on these comments would be awesome!
Anything on rear drum brakes replacement for trackers or sidekick ? Mine is 96*
I think my blower killed a mouse today. This video will help me
Good luck on the repair!
@@Hwy83SUZUKI thanks Tony! I found that sum'bitch in there, got em out and had me High Life when I was done 🍻 🤙🏻
What makes u think that cause i think i have the same problem
Reapond asap
Vent cable to transfer to defrost not working...suggestions?
Have u ever ran into the problem where ur samurai is running perfect and then turns off while still driving foot on the accelerator. Cranks wants to fire but won’t start ??? Changed fuel filter ,plugs wires and ignitor and still noting can’t seem to turn on and it was driving fine before it turned off while driving on road ., rpms just dropped and that was it (had full tank of gas)
I would start with a compression check, hows the timing belt? Was there a noise prior to it when it died? Facebook has a few groups that can help you troubleshoot issues with these rigs.
Hey tony, have you done a video in trouble shooting a dimmer switch for no dash light problems on a tracker?
Hey Tony I love the blue graphics. I have a black 96 sidekick, do you know where I can order those sweet blue decals?
What is up with the bolts with red paint? Are they holding upthe airbag? I cant get to the two upper bolts. Trying not to kill myself with an airbag.
There are no air bags on this model
I wish I could find a geo tracker in maine. Would you recommend buying one for a daily driver?
i daily my 98 with 134k
Mine too, 94 sidekick, 230,000
FurSure!
El mío no enciende en absoluto, nada
Fuck the Rest Ride the Best! But I'm on Ace now
