Stephanie for Model Number Frigidaire Model #FER311FSO How do I remove the motor from the blower? Any special tools? Thanks in advance.
Answer Hello Stephanie. I usually use a pair of vice grips on the motor shaft on the belt end. Do not clamp them on the pulley as this will cause burrs which will wear the belt. Clock wise should remove as your looking at the blower wheel (left handed threads). I normally look at the replacement part to ensure I'm not trying to turn it the wrong direction because if you force it the wrong direction you can damage the part that you don't need to replace. The motor will then easily unclip from the shroud assembly. I certainly hope this helps. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, February 22, 2012
