Other than removing the center nut holding the fan blades, is there any way to get inside this blower motor to repair or lubricate this motor from my 1971, or are these motors factory sealed?
It whines & squeals inside when it's run at medium-high speeds. I'd hate to replace the blower motor with another good used one (presuming I can find one), but I may be forced to if I cannot fix this. Has anyone had success on these? Thanks, Ken   |

You can get in them fairly easily. Pull the fan off. Under that should be two screws. Those two screws are holding the two tabs that you see sticking outside of the motor body (one is showing in your second pic, right near the wiring coming from the motor). Once the screws are out the whole back shell/cover of the motor comes off.
The bearing in the cover is tough to get out because it’s pressed into the end of the motor cover. The one in the main part of the body is easier. |
