Trying to replace Blower Motor...need help again.

So I got everything unbolted and unplugged from the blower motor. got the cruise control moved out of the way, and I can't seem to get it all out. I'm looking at the haynes manual and it looks like it says I have to remove the blower motor wheel hub, pushnut, and clamp from the shaft before taking it out. How do I do that? And it also says that I need to disarm the airbag system. I didn't do that cause I just found out after unbolting everything. Should I be ok if I don't disarm it? Any help would be great!

Thanks,
Clay

Gave it another try and I got it out and replaced. You need to take out your intake, move radiator and windshield wiper fluid resivours and move the Cruise Control Module to get it out. Ended up being pretty easy. I never disarmed the Airbags I chanced it I guess. The new motor blows harder than the old one. Almost like there's a whole nother speed lol.

Its 3 or 4 screws and it slides right out. Move the cruise and maybe pull the washer/rad res. Dont forget to pull the power plug off of it.


The fan cage stays on the blower till you get it out.
