Default Blower motor help

Hey guys, my blower motor has gone out on me. I've noticed over the last week or two the air hasn't been blowing as hard as it use too I thought it was just me. Well I went on vacation this week and when ever the air was on recirculate it gave my GF a head ache and it smelled kind of funny. Then a few days later it makes a horrible noise when it on. Sounds like an air compressor and it shakes the dash.

Any ideas how I can fix it? I rather fix it myself so any instructions would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Sounds like your blower is toast. Remove and replace.
Ya should be able to find one pretty easy at a junkyard.

My blower makes a nice little whinning sound so im just waiting for the day when the bearing eats itself, and il put my other one in.

Ok so I tore into it and fixed it. So somehow a paper towel or something got into the fan and tore it up and clogged the fan fins. It threw it off balance causing the noise. I pulled it and cleaned it off and it work likes new.
