My heater blower (on my 2000 Anniversary 115,000 miles) makes a light ticking sound on the lower settings. I have removed and there is no debris and so I am thinking maybe it is just worn out. I also had the same noise on my prior 1998 that my son now owns and my older 1994 active model.

I am assuming this is very common? Is the fix just to replace the fan motor or is the another solution?

Looking at the Infiniti Parts USA web site for a 2000 model year Y33 it does not appear that the fan and motor can be purchased separately as there is not price quoted. I am assuming this is the part I need to buy if available. Guess its time to call Joe!!

We're assuming you cleaned the fan blades of all built up dirt, oiled up the blower bearing while you had it out, and then listened up close with the glovebox removed to try and pinpoint the noise.

If you've determined it's failing blower motors (sounds like it, twice) and you want to replace the parts, call IOS direct and speak to a rep. It should be pretty hard for them to screw up such a straightforward part request, although the parts guy at IOS last week tried to tell me my 90Q didn't have dust boots on the front struts. I couldn't get him to look further for the boots until I looked under the car and verified they were installed.

Mike or anyone that's interested: If you need a part number to a Infiniti part email me and I will get you the part number within one day. I can make lists that you can send to IOS to make sure that IOS minimizes any mistakes. Infiniti Of Scottsdale does make PDF's that they should send to you (Didn't send me one when I made my first order).

Rover3l here is the blower motor part number: 27220-5P108-. For the first time there is a Technical Service Bulletin attached to the part number so you may want to look into it, it concerns the blower motor cover.
