Blower Motor replacement

[instrument48]

Will be replacing the blower motor in my 2005 DC. I am looking for the best quality out there. Really not interested in the cheapest. What brand is considered the best, without having to go to the dealer? Thanks

get the toyota part. order it online so you don't have to go to the dealer and pay their high prices.

$122 online for Toyota blower motor/gerbal cage, $430 for complete Toyota blower unit; both online prices.

RockAuto.com has some cheap motors....

Are you sure its the blower motor, and not the control module/resistor?

If we're talking about the same thing, I bought one from Toyota Parts - Genuine OEM Toyota Auto Parts and Accessories a few years back for about $45.

If you're talking about the heater/AC blower motor (the one under the heater core above the passenger footwell), toyotapartszone.com has 'em for $49. Part #87103-0C010.

Must be quite a difference between the part you guys are looking at and the one the OP needs.
are you guys quoting for a DC?... OP has an 05 DC. Part #87103-0C022...about $121 from toyotapartszone or toyomotorparts.

I have an '02 AC. The part Remmy refers to is the one I was talking about. It's the same part you refer to, but obviously a different model. There must be one h*ll of a difference between the years for the part for his truck to be that much more. I hope the thing can make coffee too .

I just picked up a brand new replacement blower (with fan blades) #87103-0C010 from Amazon for $25 + free shipping.

Just checked the prices on CamelbackToyota.com (pretty cheap prices on most things). They only want $48.44 for an AC, but want $117.98 for the DC part. I guess the bigger cab requires a different blower motor.

I bought a TYC off of Ebay and so far I am very happy with it. The price was around $35 or so. If OEM is going for $45, that is probably the way to go. The OEM blower was a DENSO.

I just bought the TYC motor off Amazon as well. It was $25 shipped. I bungled my OEM one trying to get the damn fan cage off and it makes an irritating little rattling noise.

[kerryman71]

Yeah, that fan cage really sucks getting off.

so why are you guys replacing your hamster wheels?

[Stone_Blue]

^^ I just wanted to get mine off so I could clean 13yrs of farm crap off it...Couldnt get it off, so just cleaned it with a dry toothbrush...Didnt think the motor would like a dunking in the bathtub with all the other interior parts I had to scrub.

[kerryman71]

Mine was making a PITA squealing noise so I took it apart to lube it up and clean the fan while I was at it. It ended up being I needed a whole new unit.
