Now after removing the 3rd bolt… I love videos just that easy!
You did not show how to remove the most difficult blower screw in the back !!
That third screw in the back is harder to get off than a squirrel on a popsicle stick
How in the hell did you get the back one? I even got an electric ratchet. There’s no room to reach it with the floor board.
Good video, but not as easy as you make it look.
I have a 2004 Acura MDX and had to take my car into the dealership to get the passenger side airbag replaced for a recall. The next time I tried to use my AC it didn't work. The dealership said I had a bad AC blower resistor and was going to charge me $300 just for the part. I bought one myself and replaced it but it still doesn't work. Any ideas?
Same for 07 mdx???
Hey bro thanks man you’re the boom I saved over $300 from the dealer I did it on my TL 2006 Acura bad ass I only pay for the part $70 the dealer want way more plus $165 per hour to installation
Great video Brian…helped me remove and clean my blower/rotor to remove some debris and get rid of the whirring noise caused by all the debris that had accumulated over the years…
My motor makes a loud noise like an airplaine. I thought that might be debris in my filter, so I pulled out the filter but the helicopter noise is still there, even louder now because it is not muffled by the glove box. Do I need new blower motor or there will be debris in the blower motor causing the helicopter noise?
What do I do if I have clicking noise in that department, it just clicks and clicks. It started last week when I tried to remove the stereo and trip computer so I thought debris must’ve gone through to some moving components there and It’s driving me crazy. I removed the glove box and some switches and that turned off the ignition so that sent me straight to agonizing sleep. I have 2006 Acura MDX touring
Have the same Milwaukee power set. Very handy
Do you have any videos for replacing the resistor for a 2010 mdx?
Thanks for the informative video, Brian. My 2005 MDX AC/Heater has been making intermittent noises for the last few months. I always hit the "full auto" button and let the AC unit adjust to whatever temperature I set instead of using the manual controls. Last weekend I changed the cabin air filter and checked for debris in the blower fan but that was clean. The cabin air filter had turned completely black. Whenever that sound occurs I simply turn the fan off and back on again, which stops the noise. Yesterday on the way to work it started making a squeaking sound so I did the off/on maneuver with the fan again. I drove it last night and again this morning on the way to work without any issues. Should I replace the resistor, and if so can I replace it without taking the motor out? Thanks so much for your help.
One of the most informative repair video. Thanks
Thank you very much! My son and I just followed your instructions and replaced the blower and blower resistor in our 2002 MDX with 250,000+ miles. We ordered the parts using your link. Total cost under $80. My son is looking forward to having cold AC again as the temps hit 117 this week in Phoenix!
Changed the resistor in mt 2001 acura mdx. The fuses are fine. The rear ac just doesnt work. The lights on it doesnt light up either. Any thought on what i could try next??? Thanks
After 150k miles my blower on my MDX is making a squealing sound. Do I need to replace both the motor and the resistor or just the motor?
Is this to fix the heat if hot or cold air isn’t working?
