Furnace blower motor not coming out or stuck to the blower wheel? No problem! In this video I go over all the different ways to persuade a stubborn furnace or ac blower motor to come out. The first way is simply clean and oil the shaft of the motor good before attempting to pull out the motor. I show examples of what I mean by that in the video. If playing nice is not cutting it, then the next step is to use a hub puller. I show an example of it in action. And lastly, if all else fails, I explain how to bust the motor out if it comes down to that. And if the question should arise.. No, I have never been in the military.

@Samrosewall 2 года назад

I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate this video I ended up trying to hit it out with a hammer which kind of flatten the end of it and I had to use a metal file to straightened back out it was a pain in the butt but thanks to you I figured it out thank you so much

@michaelduddy4119 Год назад

Hey Troy. Thanks for the help. My blower was really really stuck and i don't own a puller. Tried oil , crescent wrench, hammers, heat you name it. What finally worked was inserting the shaft into my B&D 1/2 inch electric drill and cranking it while holding the blower. Turned the motor free and polished the inside of the wheel hole at the same time. The drill Went on the shaft easily and tightly and loosened it with zero effort for the drill. I had struggled for close to 2 hrs. Before this.

@marbletyrol 3 года назад

Thank you, you saved me with the level 1 technique! One thing I needed to do after being able to rotate the motor shaft out of the blower wheel was to file down the set screw mark after pushing down the wheel a bit. Now I will be able to deal with the real problem: wobbling blower wheel. I assume adjusting the weights after cleaning all the dust and debris would help, but I'll see. Anyway, thanks a lot for the useful video. This is the second time you saved me, the first was to diagnose the relay problem on the controller board after learning the sequence of the furnace functions from your video a year ago. Hope you are enjoying the life on the island. Big Island had been our favorite place for diving in '90, now we just retuned from Oahu trip to meet our son first time since we sent him off alone to college this August. Wishing I can relocate there. Will ask you if I face more problem on my furnace.

@OxbowSummer Год назад

Kudos! Pushing the stuck bushing back down and sanding the shaft with fine sandpaper as shown in your video, followed by 3in1 oil was all I needed to be able to get the motor separated from the blower in an old Nordyne. Saved me a trip to pick up an expensive hub tool. Thank you! Once I had the motor apart I cleaned and let the end caps with the dried out felt oil wells (no access channel -old style) soak in 3in1 oil and it began to spin beautifully. Cleaned, wire brushed and spray painted the squirrel cage to reduce future dust accumulation and the furnace runs like new. (I have a new motor on order but I may end up returning it). Great channel! Saved a $300 service call which would have resulted a replacement motor for an additional marked up $400. The satisfaction is surprisingly and disproportionately huge :)

@binks2413 2 года назад

Lubricant and striking a piece of wood worked for me. No damage to the shaft. Thanks

@jpol3808 4 года назад

Great video and great tips. I usually push the blower fan down against the motor and then give that shaft a good cleaning with some Emory cloth and a small file for any big burrs I might find. Then a small couple drops of any kind of light penetrating oil on the blower hub and with the housing laid across a milk crate, give the end of the motor shaft a couple quick taps with a dead blow hammer and the old motor is now in the milk crate, ready to be carried out for disposal or a core refund. The rooftop condenser fans do take a little more sanding with the emery cloth, but they end up sliding right off just as easy. I learned to polish shafts before fan removal on a six foot in diameter exhaust ventilation fan, that had quit running after 15 years of service and I'll just say it was well worth doing. That fan would have never been removed otherwise. Great video. Take care. Loved the joke! 😀 Jpol.

@ronaldscroggins627 3 года назад

a last case scenario vs busting out the squirrel cage is to apply heat around around the hub and shaft (red hot) with a propane or map torch. allow to cool down or pour small amount of water to keep from getting burned, then try using step 2 with crescent wrench or hub puller. I had to use this process many times. The expansion ad contraction of the two dissimilar metals usually frees up the shaft so it can be removed

@simplegreen6596 Год назад

This is what i did. way faster. Except i only heated the hub and used a punch with a smaller diameter as the shaft as to not mushroom it out.

@bricks-mortar 11 месяцев назад

4:06 TY. Use of crescent wrench.👍 Done. At this point I will certainly investigate whether some home furnaces are less difficult than others.

@chuckhursch5374 Год назад

Thanks for your advice on the crescent wrench! Had to use my 10” wrench to get the torque to start rotating the fan on the motor shaft. I still could not get the fan off, but more spinning and some work with the rubber mallet on the motor shaft finally loosened it up. I suspect the fan and shaft have been together for the life of the furnace, likely 30 years and change…

@gibraltar321 4 года назад

A pro tip on the hub puller. Do this once and you will not have to do it again. Take all of the bolts that are in it that go into the hub out and put them back in a half turn at a time. Next time you use it turn each set screw exactly the same revolutions. Reverse that order the same when you get the wheel is off. Exact center is what you want and this will do it.

@WordofAdviceTV 4 года назад

Yes! Good advice! Thank you very much for the additional pointers!

@munsters2 3 года назад

Good video. Thanks. If really stuck bad, I would say use penetrating oil (not lubricating oil) on the collar and apply heat to the outside of collar with a torch. One other method. If you have a helper, see if he can get his hands in past the motor and grab the blower cage (not on the edges because it will bend) right near the center, near the motor shaft. Have him raise it up in the air so the end of the shaft points up. Now you place a protective piece of metal or wood against end of shaft and strike it sharply with a hammer. Be ready to catch the motor because it may drop right out.

@PoppaSquat8 Год назад

First trick did it for me. Thanks boss

@timbren1679 3 года назад

One tip I’ve learned over the years, a lot of times if you just can't get it, if you put you're face in front of it while pulling real hard it will usually release.

@mrbubble185 2 года назад

Your idea with the crescent wrench on the shaft gave me an idea using rotary impact. Set the assembly so that the shaft is horizontal. Spin the shaft (and squirrel cage) with the wrench (set screw removed) and let the wrench handle strike the floor and come to a sudden stop. The inertia of the squirrel cage will keep it rotating and it will budge a little bit. Repeat until it spins freely.

@InspiredScience 2 года назад

This is an excellent idea. In this case, part of the trick would be *only* removing the set-screw (nothing else at this stage), next use the impact-driver, as you explained, allowing it to lock itself into a fixed-position.

@mrbubble185 2 года назад

@@InspiredScience The technique I described worked nicely on a 25 year old furnace (still up and running). It doesn't involve any tool other than the crescent wrench which grips the flat part of the motor shaft (set screw removed). The rotational shock (sudden deceleration) of the shaft when the wrench handle strikes the floor is the source of the impact. The nice thing about this approach is that it doesn't involve a puller and is pretty "kind" to the squirrel cage.

Word of Advice TV great advice as to how to handle a situation where the blower wheel won’t come off. Never had a worse case scenario where I have had to break the wheel apart, but need to stress that if a person ever finds themselves in a situation where they have to break the wheel apart to take measurements of the wheel first, there are a few dozen different sizes out there, so you don’t want to go ham on one without first documenting the size of the original one your going to replace.

Level 2.5 is to use a drill and make a small indentation in the center of the shaft (to keep the chusel/punch centered on the shaft), then place the housing on some cmu blocks/4x4 scrap, put a point style chisel in your bulldog/rotary hammer, set it to hammer only mode and give it the beans. I guess an air hammer would also work if you happen to have an air compressor handy.

@mikemalone6103 4 дня назад

I’ve been a tech for 30 years and blowers are always a pain. Firstly, why is the motor being replaced, many times its a blower wheel becomes unbalanced and destroys the bearings over time. On outdoor units that have a rusty shaft, dont bother, order a wheel too. If your insistent to remove the blower or condenser blade, clean up the shaft with sand cloth first, remove the set screw, and penetrating oil the flat side of the shaft and try spin the shaft with a crescent to spread the lube. Use a drill tip screw to place a dimple in the shaft center to keep it from walking.back out the puller screw all the way using a 3/4” socket on your hammer drill. Evenly space the puller screws from the sides of the puller interior. Half turn each screw alternately till contact is made, then use the Allen wrench. AVOID THE SETSCREW HOLE . Use the socket and it will come out easily. Ive only had one over the years that was so stubborn it stripped the center screw on the puller, ended up shutting the shaft.

The oiler is more of a lubricant whereas WD-40 is a penetrating oil. So I suppose if the shaft is really rusted, WD-40 would be the better choice. The zoom spout oiler is usually all that is needed in most cases though.

I just saw a nice thick solid kneepads sell at Harbor Freight last week, for 5 bucks. It looks and feels better than those for gardening use.

I would like to ask your opinion...actually I am a technician...what possible cause of a low cool PAC? I cannot get the specific current using the clamp meter? I already charge the unit to its specified PSI? please reply.

I do not work on PAC units so unfortunately I would not be able to give you any good insight on this problem.. Perhaps another viewer will have a good idea later on though.
