Heater Fan Doesn’t Turn On?

This morning I went to go turn on my heater fan in my vehicle. Come to find out it does not work or even turn on. I kind of think of myself as a fix it yourself person. What are the first things I should look at and why this isn’t working. It seems like it’s just a fan itself that’s not blowing. Could this be a blown fuse or what could it be?

Remove AC on MX6 Probe

Remove AC on MX6 Probe %

Here’s a picture of me removing the air conditioning in my mazda. Removing it was not too hard. I expected it to b a lot harder but it was only 4 bolts. I’m wondering how much more horsepower going to gain without the extra pulley. Does anybody know any statistics test and how much more horsepower I will get. I’ve heard that it’s around 10 horsepower but I just wanna see. Here is an image of my mazda mx 6 it’s a 1995. I had to replace the alternator so I while I was out I just removed the ac.

Now I need to go find a different out because my other belt too long.

Bad Condenser

Bad condenser %

My condenser is bad and I am trying to figure out if it is something I can fix on my own or not. The whole idea of changing and fixing this myself is a bit scary to be honest.

Is there a way to check the condenser to see if its bad or not? I can see it has some black spots in the coils but I’m not sure if that’s a bad thing or not in a condenser. Someone please help.

Hyundai Condenser Change

Hyundai condenser change %

My condenser is bad in my Hyundai elantra and I need to change it myself. The reason being a mechanic told me it was leaking very badly and cost a couple hundred dollars to fix.

How hard are these things to fix on your own? I’m pretty handy when it comes to fixing small things like this. Is this a hard do it yourself task for an average Joe? Someone give me some insight.
