bc_gold 114 #1 Posted December 15, 2024 (edited) Other day the heater motor quit, no problem $90.00 plus two tax's an hours trip to Brandon freezing my butt off gets me a new motor. Instead I flushed the excess carbon out, four rinses later. Motor back in truck and I have heat. I suspect the carbon was shorting out the segments on the commutator or hanging up the brushes from moving freely.
