Does anyone has DIY step by step pic to replace a/c blower motor E46?
Please Help me. My A/c fun has whistling noise so at least I want to clean up the motor to fix the problem.

Thanks

I'd like to see a DIY on this myself!

Hopefully the dash doesn't have to come out like on other BMWs I've had.

My fan died last night and is now working this morning. I also would like to understand how to access the blower so I can check connections etc. Doing some reading it looks as thought the blower resistor (FSU) may be the culprit but want to check connections first before replacing something that may not need to be replaced.

Note: I followed these instructions, but I gave up trying to remove the blower. All bolts were off and the motor was in my hands. I just never managed to take out. The darn blower is too big to fit between the engine body. Maybe it has something to do with the s54 engine being higher in the engine bay ???

on my old E30 it was easy as hell to access. There was an access panel on the firewall that allowed you to remove it. hope for your sake its just as easy on the E46

B1G, did you remove the engine cover to get more clearance? That's what I had to do on my E46 323i, then it came out easy. Was going to help someone with his M3, but after reading your post, I'd like to understand your issue a bit better so I don't get stuck in the same situation.
