I know this is an old thread but my VY is also old and the blower fan stopped working. I read all above and tried everything so I was about to buy a another blower fan and I thought I'll just open open the motor and check the brushes. Found the problem! cleaned it all out and put it back together.
Then put it back in the car I was all pumped and then nothing! I was pissed off lol. OpenedView attachment 202673 View attachment 202674 it up again grabbed the multi meter checked the wiring to the brush and it was all good. Put the brushes back in gave them a wiggle tested it on a 12v battery in the shed a VROOM!
All back together now a running like a champ. Just writing in case this helps someone else.
I pulled apart one of these a few years back. I could not get it back together. The magnet kept pulling the motor housing to one side.
I’d love to know how to pull simple motors, like these apart, and put back together.
