    Hi. Please tell me where to find the instructions on how to remove the cabin ventilator fan?
    I search the forum and can't find it.
    Just unscrew the screws from the front and bottom, or anything else from the top? Do I extend it downwards or upwards?
    It's about a fan behind the passenger compartment. Prius 2 '06. IMG_20220524_000631.jpeg IMG_20220524_000725.jpeg

    How much of it do you want to remove? The motor and impeller? The whole enclosure?

    It's hard to find within the over 5000 pages, but have a look at page 2747 / AC-161 and the following ones.

    FP4 ?

    Yeah it suck’s you have to Lay down under it on the passenger side
    It’s just a few bolts comes right out no big deal
    Unless you have a bad back like me I use foam cushions to lie on
    Fan motor failure is very common it starts not coming on then it does then it doesn’t….
    Whatever you do buy the OEM Denso fan or you’ll be doing it twice.
