Default Is my blower dead? Help!

This morning i went to start my accord, and when i turned on the fan for heat, i didn't get any air pressure. It was like i wasn't getting any air blowing at all. The funny thing is that i can hear the fan going like it's blowing, but i get minimal pressure. If i set the fan speed to high, i can kinda feel some heat coming through the vents.

Is there a leak somewhere? Any ideas? I never dealt with the venting system b4 so i don't know where to begin!?

Mine died last spring. I just grabbed another blower motor from a junkyard and it works again. It was a bitch to install though cause its a tight space to work in but only like 3 screws and a plug. Oh and its located above the ecu, like behind the glove box.

Thats what happened to mines. At first it it would sort of blow air but then die out gradually. The fan will still rotate but not with the full power it used to. Before replacing it go ahead and check the connection to see if its loose. If not then its probably on its way to blower motor heaven.

I had the junkyard add power to my blown motor and it rotated so slow. When they pulled one from a wrecked accord and added power to it (I asked them to test it to see if it was still good) the damn thing spun so fast it almost flew off the table.

That means your Fan is working and the blower is not!

my blower motor seemed like it was dying a year ago, it would take like 5-30 min for it to turn on if it turned on at all when i turned the car on, a couple months ago it just started to work all the time again so maybe wait it out and it will kick back in???
