    95 blower motor

    Make sure the squirl cage is spinning the correct direction. Got one once that was reverse of what I needed. Acted a lot like yours. I just reversed the wires. Good luck with it.

    How does this happen...

    Once on a cold winter morning after turning on the heat to the windshield, I watched a bullseye blossom into a crack and make its way from one side to the other. It took about half an hour in slow motion.
