Blower Motor hose?
Hello all,
I recently bought a 96 ranger.I noticed the fan did not work but for high. I search the internet and found how to remove it and discovered a mouse nest(village) which basically took over the housing where the evaportor core,blower motor resides. I bought a chilton but cannot remove the housing around the core so I cleaned it the best I could(air compressor and vacuum and disinfectant)
I had to buy a new blower motor and resistor. However, I cannot find the hose that attached to the blower motor?-mouse had chewed a hole in the one- I've looked and found serveral differents names for it but seems I cannot find it at my local parts store.
My question is- is this intake hose? vent hose? I'm guessing I will have to go to dealer or, if I know the name I can look it up in a salvage yard?
Thanks in advance
Sher

Have a look at this diagram:
Are you referring to the tube in the middle of the picture that routes from the housing to the blower motor? If so, the Autozone repair guide calls that piece a "Blower Motor Cooling Tube". Autozone does not appear to sell this piece so, you may have to go to a dealer or a junkyard to find it.

I believe so - I've not done a blower resistor on a Ranger yet, but other vehicles I've had in the past had the resistor in almost exactly the same position, with the fan blowing air over it to keep it cooled down.

Got it. I will try to have it in the mail by lunchtime tomorrow. We are having a monthly dinner in the N.C. Chapter tonight, so I have to get home and clean up, I been fabricating a steel frame for a 200 gallon sprayer rig and I am covered in metal dust. Oh by the way, You're welcome. I will follow up once I have sent it out in the morning.
