2015 Nissan sentra blower motor removal / installation / replacement 2013 2014 2016

[@ImperialVideo]

You saved my life! I was panicking because I thought I was about to have to go to a mechanic for part replacements since money is tight due to the pandemic. Thank you so much!

[@skipjagger]

That's awesome!!! It's wasn't too bad to get in there and do though, right? I was ready to have to take the whole dash apart to get to the blower motor, nissan ether got lucky or thought ahead! Ether way, it's AWESOME!!!

[@fmttu2]

Saved my butt. Recover the three torx screws and it wouldn't come out. I was about to give up. Who knew it was so easy. Thank you!

[@leh3827]

You are the bearer of Great news🌞 We all know the nightmare that accessing a fan or heater core can be! Thanks Nissan, and thank you👍

[@then1bowweathercamerasfrom257]

Had a vibration. Did what you showed. IT WORKED!! Thanks, Kemosabe.

[@skipjagger]

Ha!!! Awesome!!! Glad I helped someone out!! Hahahah did you find any lint or something inside the fan? That's what made ours vibrate initially, We had some body work done on the car after an accident, and they must have accidentally got the packaging for one of the small parts stuck in the vent somehow. the blower motor sucked it up and bent something in there. Even though I removed the plastic bag, it still vibrated afterwards.

[@robertking8298]

Thanks , my daughter just pulled it apart (piece of some kind of foam in the fan) and put it back together. 15 min and all is Good. Thank you.

[@skipjagger]

That's awesome! We had a plastic bag stuck in ours!

[@Melodic_Cherry_1898]

This saved me so much money! Thank you for this video! 🙌

[@skipjagger]

You are very welcome!! I think Nissa did a nice job, made that a relatively quick and easy replacement!!!

[@hahahoopster]

Thank you for making this video! I was able to change mine out after/while watching your video.

[@skipjagger]

I was very surprised to find it was that easy!! they usually have you taking half the dash apart to get to stuff like that!!

[@scriptohmy7834]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO. My AC has been loud as shit for so long and I had no idea how to get to the blower motor in my 2013 sentra. This helped me with the project and finally remove the stupid freaking piece of rubber that lodged itself in my motor. Serious, freaking THANK YOU.

[@skipjagger]

Hahahaha! Thats awesome! I'm glad it helped someone! You are 100% welcome! Quick question, do you have a CVT in yours? Ours is starting to act strange under medium acceleration on the highway, like up a hill. Do you see anything like that?

[@skipjagger]

The hair do is awesome BTW

[@scriptohmy7834]

@@skipjagger lol, thank you. it was a windy day :] Mine does have a CVT, but I haven't noticed any serious or consistent issues with accelerating. Sometimes around the 1-10mph range it can be a little janky, but otherwise mine is as smooth as the day I bought it in 2013.

[@andrewkopanski1330]

Our Sentra has 76k miles and the CVT is just starting to go. It's slipping under moderate acceleration and doesn't have much time left. The blower motor is in its way out too, and it's great to see it's an easy job unlike the Volvo's I've had in the past, but we'll be trading it in soon due to the transmission problem. It appears they all do this. Shame on Nissan for not extending the warranty on the newer models like they were forced to for the older ones.

[@skipjagger]

@@andrewkopanski1330 I am worried about ours, it got 60k on it and it's just not right, it has gotten ?better? But still hunts under mild steady acceleration, $8,000 for a replacement tranny..... Doesn't really give me the warm fuzzies

[@hcrick5351]

Thanks so much. Saved me $400 and I didn't even need the $50 motor to finish the repair. Just had to scrape out the dead mouse from inside the fan. His damn tail stopped the blades from turning.

[@skipjagger]

Hahahah!!! I just saw this comment (hard to find these things sometimes!!) Dead mouse is the best one so far!!! Hahahaha!! Hopefully your blower is still blowing great!!

[@HolyDiver17]

Thank you so much!!!!. A local bodyshop quoted me $500 for this. They told me they needed to dismount the whole dashboard lol

[@skipjagger]

I am very happy to see this saved someone money!!!! Just as an added point here, I buy pretty much all my automotive parts from Rockauto.com, they always seem to send decent parts and are pretty cheap!!!

[@Chris-rp8cj]

$500? A local shop wanted to charge me $800 for this!

[@burnner67]

Finally something easy about my car. Thanks man 👍

[@Bakhodir-Nurmatov]

Nissan sentra 2013 is same thank you !!!

[@javiervelasco2186]

Do you know if for right hand drive you have to take the dashboard out?

[@kenyfry]

Worked for my 2017 sentra! Thanks

[@FUNnSUNinFLA]

Quick and to the point! Thanx!

[@hmmg355]

can you tell me where is the blower motor resistor???? i have a 2017 nissan sentra

[@agoodneighborautorepair2176]

Very nice explanation. Blessings

[@bigwo56]

On a 2015 Versa it's the same, but you can only access from drivers side! It's as tho Nissan had som right hand drive parts left over, and used them! It's a pain to get to, as one must drop steering wheel and coupling to access the fan!!!

[@airgunningyup]

i just tried mine.. i only see the inlet port on the passenger side.. so moving onto the driver side now.

[@Jsiwjwbhewiaolalqlq]

Thanks man, u saved me some big money.

[@skipjagger]

Glad it helped someone!!!

[@aymana8616]

Thank you 🙏

[@timdemming6352]

You really helped us out, thank you.

[@skipjagger]

You are very welcome! Glad it was helpful to someone!!

[@joshuahayes3764]

Great video man, I love how simple you keep it and how well you explain things. Keep up the good work!

[@ssmotor00]

Great instructions thank you

[@cwade692]

Where is the blower motor resistor located on a 2005 Nissan sentra I the glove compartment as well?

[@mellenjack55]

Does a 2016 Sentra the same set up? I`ve read at other sites you may have to remove the dash assembly on those.

[@missioncodez]

This looks like a much better placement for the blower motor than was in the 2008-2013 models, where it was in the center dash, but more vertical, and in such a position that the "easiest" way of getting to it involved removing your pedals, for starters. Nissan would rather you remove the dash itself to gain access. This is MUCH better. Especially considering that blower motors go out all the time.

[@skipjagger]

Yes...I was so surprised to find how easy it was!!! My last car was similar to your story, ripped half the dash out to replace it

[@wesleymaraman8771]

Great video

[@EastWestTrack]

Thanks, George for the video. I have the same model. Do you know where is the resistor for the blower? my fan is nonstop spinning on high rpm and it won't turn off. I googled and it seems the resistor part needs to replace. I opened the glove box and couldn't find the resistor spot.

[@skipjagger]

I wasn't looking for that resister pack when I was in there while making that video. I poked around the internet a little and did find a couple forum posts that say it is directly behind the glove box. That is good news since the glove box is easy to remove. I can't post any links here through this ap, but if you Google an image of the part, you should be able to see the connector end wiring poking out somewhere in there. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

[@RezaSadeghimusic]

@@skipjagger Thank you so much for your reply. I already found the location of the resistor. unfortunately, the location of the resistor in the Sentra 2015 model is not under the glove box. It is under the front duct and installed on the heater duct of the driver side..really odd place. I ended up to open the odometer and the front console to get tiny access to the resistor.

[@MaddNines]

@@RezaSadeghimusic I have the same issue with mine. Any tips on what all needs to come out?

[@RezaSadeghimusic]

@@MaddNines I replaced the front control panel and problem solved. The left rotary volume belongs to fan speed was broken from inside due to the cheap materia. The part is too expensive but you can buy the used one from Ebay around 35 bucks.

[@Jsiwjwbhewiaolalqlq]

2013 - 2019 is the same system.

[@chriscalderin6677]

Thanks a bunch this is a common problem on this car because I get junk in it all the time but never on any other car I have owned. The foam seals fall apart these cars are junk

[@kylehooper2981]

Wow. That was stupidly simple. A bit of a sigh of relief after changing the head gaskets on my truck... hahahahah

[@skipjagger]

I don't envy that job!!!!! I was relieved to find out that was that easy too!!!!

[@bigolbear2510]

What happens is li'l critters like mice decide this'd be a good place to make a nest. Then they start hauling anything that could keep them warm into the blower and set up house. The next time you move the car, they scare away and leave their baggage. Happened to me twice, found peanuts and pink house insulation in one blower. Found grey house insulation in the other blower, and the li'l critter built a 2nd nest right on top of the engine.

[@skipjagger]

I know this comment is old, but the pink house insulation is hilarious! Hahahahaba

[@michaelstrausburg6818]

My blower motor resistor is bad and needs to be replaced. Does anyone know where to locate that part in a 2016 Nissan Sentra SV?

[@aymana8616]

It’s easy i thought so hard to get in

[@skipjagger]

I was so surprised myself, that's why I wanted to make a video!!!

[@skipjagger]

Not sure about the 2016 sentra blower. I would hope they kept the easy access!

[@IvynDewberry]

So im the only struggling 😅help

[@robertjanowski710]

You didn’t get it in that way did you. lol

[@skipjagger]

I'm sorry, which way do you mean?

[@mxrider4957]

not enough information ..i pull out your 6 screw and i try to "pop off'' and nothing happend ..

[@tigerkill420]

My blower starts at start up then like thottles down. Even on high. I'm going to attempt this repair.

[@skipjagger]

That's strange??? You figure if the brushes in the motor were worn out, it would just not run unless you gave it a little tap. Did you end up pulling the fan motor out? Curious to see if it was stiff and didn't spin freely or something???
