I’ve now had two separate incidents where my blower motor failed because of critters. When I opened the cabin air filter housing, I didn’t find debris—I found feathers and a full-on nest. It was so bad that my K&N reusable filter couldn’t even be saved.
If you’ve dealt with the same issue, here’s a simple and inexpensive fix:
Head to your local hardware store (Lowe’s or Home Depot works great) and pick up some gutter mesh. I came across this solution on a forum, installed it, and it’s been a game changer.
Bonus: I had extra mesh left over, so now I’m adding it to my other vehicles too.
Cheap, easy, and it might save you from replacing a blower motor down the road.
