[200q20v] climate control senior moments?

[Phil and Judy Rose]

Yeh, that's the diagnosis I feared. The blower motor (brushes) has squealed
loudly from time to time over the past 2 yrs--usually during hard turns
when the A/C (not econ) is on. I know it's been on borrowed time--but
always has worked reliably until now.  I tried a suggestion to spray the
brushes about 12 months ago. Guess it's time to install new motor.
