GMC Blower Motor TOTALLY Clogged: How Did This Even Get in There?? (Digging in With Greg Alberalla)

What happens here

First, use a shop vac to suck out the large, loose debris from the blower motor housing and the surrounding air ducts. For stubborn or tightly packed debris, use a plastic trim removal tool to carefully dislodge material from the air ducts. Once loosened, use compressed air to blow out any remaining fine particles, while simultaneously using the shop vac to capture the dislodged debris and prevent it from circulating throughout the cabin.

Goal: Thoroughly clear all debris from the blower motor housing and air ducts.

Tools and materials

  • Compressed Air Gun — Blowing out fine or stuck debris
  • Plastic Trim Removal Tool — Dislodging stubborn debris from tight spaces
  • Safety Glasses — Protecting eyes from flying debris
  • Shop Vac Shop-Vac — Vacuuming up loose debris
