If you can find the fan, you can find the motor
Remove the air intake from the throttle body and 4 bolts for the radiator shroud. This should give you access to the fans.

Passengers foot well. Your going to need to remove the close out panel below the dash. Then you will need to crawl under the dash and the fan is held in with 6 screws. MAKE SURE that you remove the FUSE for the fan unplug the fan motor or disconnect the battery. The outside case of the motor is +12 VDC. If you accidentally ground the case, the motor will spin at full speed ahead!!

When my motor was making a squealing noise, I had to drill a small hole in the end of the motor to be able to add some oil!!

Worked like a champ and I saved some cash!!!
