Furnace Circulation Blower Fan Motor Replacement

This video provides general information on how a furnace circulation blower fan motor works, how to test the part, where it is commonly located, and general installation guidelines.

Furnace

RCC-FASCO-FURNACE

Furnace not heating

Type: PSC; HP: 1/3 - 1/4 - 1/5; Volts: 115; RPM: 1075; Speed: 3; Amps: 5.9-4.6-3.8; Enclosure: Open Vent.; Rotation: REV; Bearing Style: SLV; Shaft Dimension: 1/2 X 6; Motor Length: 4 1/4

The blower motor spins a blower wheel to circulate the heated air throughout the home's venting. If the motor is burned out, the air will not be circulated. You should try turning the blower wheel by hand to determine if it can rotate freely. If blower wheel does not turn freely, it's likely the blower motor bearings have seized and the motor will need to be replaced. You can also use a multimeter to determine if voltage is reaching the motor. If power is getting to the component, but the motor doesn't run, it is likely defective.

Furnace is noisy or loud

Over time, the bearings in the blower motor wear out, causing the motor to become noisy. Some furnace motors can be lubricated—if your furnace motor can be lubricated, try lubricating it first. If lubricating the motor doesn’t solve the problem, or if your motor can’t be lubricated, replace the motor. 

Furnace blower not running

The blower motor blows air through the return vent, past the heat exchanger, and into the home’s venting. First, make sure that power is getting to the motor. If power is getting to the blower motor, but the motor does not run, the motor may be burned out. If the blower motor is burned out, replace it. If the blower motor hums, check the blower fan to ensure that it spins freely. If the blower fan is unobstructed but does not spin freely, replace the blower motor.

Furnace not blowing enough

Since the furnace's blower motor is the component that circulates the heated air through the home's venting, a defective blower motor will result in the furnace not blowing enough. You can use a multimeter to test the blower motor for electrical continuity, a continuous electrical path present in the motor, as well as determine if power is reaching the motor. You can also try turning the blower wheel by hand. If the wheel does not turn freely, it's likely the motor bearings have seized and the blower motor will need to be replaced.

Strange smells coming from furnace

The blower motor spins a blower wheel to circulate the heated air throughout the home's venting. If the motor is burned out, the air will not be circulated. You should try turning the blower wheel by hand to determine if it can rotate freely. If blower wheel does not turn freely, it's likely the blower motor bearings have seized and the motor will need to be replaced. You can also use a multimeter to determine if voltage is reaching the motor. If power is getting to the component, but the motor doesn't run, or smells burnt, it is likely defective.


Furnace circuit breaker keeps tripping

The blower motor is the component that circulates the air through the home's venting. A defective blower motor may result in the circuit breaker tripping. You can try disconnecting the motor from the control board and see if the breaker still trips.  You can also use a multimeter to test the blower motor for an electrical short, or determine if there are any burnt smells coming from the motor. You can also try turning the blower wheel by hand. If the wheel does not turn freely, it's likely the motor bearings have seized. If the motor doesn't turn freely or is shorted, the blower motor will need to be replaced.
