Hi guys, so my blower died and im finding it hard to find integra parts locally.
Does anyone know if a blower from a civic or any other honda car from around the same year will fit my car?
I need a replacement as mine no longer works.
Thanks

Hey dude, my blower in a 01 civic died not long ago, i soldered a 1ohm resistor as instructed here. Strongly sugggest giving this a go

This DIY based on the three items that I repaired before so I presumed that once the AC blower on your EM/ES is not working the AC power transistor might be the cause of the problem. IF IT HAPPENS THAT THE REPAIR ISN'T SUCCESSFUL, THERE MIGHT BE ANOTHER PART THAT NEED TO BE FIXED. Please refer to your local dealer or reputable mechanic for further diagnosis.
Tools and Materials:
• Philips screwdriver
• a Tweezer
• Soldering iron and lead set.
• 1ohm 1/4 watt resistor
You will find the AC power transistor module here.

Removing the AC blower cover isn't that difficult, see the pics below.

The defective part.

Remove two screws.

Now release the lock to remove the AC power transistor module from the connector.

Notice the heatsink, the power transistor itself and the thermistor are attached to it.

Using the tweezer release the hooks to open it. refer to below pics.

That's the thermistor its a PTC(positive temperature coefficient-the resistance increases with increasing temperature) check with DMM it must be shorted or have at least 0 to 2 ohm resistance depending on the temperature of the heatsink.

If it's open or no resistance at all, replace it with a new one, or solder a 1 ohm resistor in parallel with the thermistor as shown.

Assemble in the reverse order of removal and re-install the power transistor.
Hope you like it http://images.honda-tech.com/set1/smile/emsmile.gif.

Its just a fan motor.
As said its most likely the resistor in the dan switch..

The fan is destroyed now, so I need a replacement.
