RE: S9 Blower Motor
Just thinking. . . Even 5k additional run hours is better than having a boat anchor.

You gotta figure, it's about $100 to order the motor and find out how long it lasts. The machines we are repairing have no value without the new motor, so risk/reward seems okay to me.

RE: S9 Blower Motor
I am happy to report that with the instruction in this thread and in the mentioned video, I was able to successfully source and replace the blower motor in my autoset10. It has now gone back to being whisper quiet. My blower started to fail and get noisy at around 10,000 hours. I tried cleaning first but it kept making the kazoo noise and getting louder as time went on. My DME provider wanted at least $500 and six to eight weeks to get my unit repaired. The blower motor, ordered from aliexpress, arrived 6 days after I ordered. It took about 30 minutes to disassemble, clean and reassemble with the new blower. Very happy with the outcome. Hopefully this blower will get me through the end of the year, at which time I'll be eligible for another new machine.
