Hyundaitech,

Is it possible to get at and clean the fans that blow the A/C or heat
through the vents on my 02 Sonata GLS? I've noticed in the past year
that it sounds like mine are either gunked up or there is some
obstruction.

I suppose you could do it that way, after removing the dash. All kidding
aside, it's far easier to remove the three screws holding the fan in place
and lower the fan out of the heater box.

Heh, I guess it must have sounded like I wanted to clean them through
the vents but that's not what I literally meant. ha! So is the heater
box behind the glove compartment or does this require pulling the
dash?

No. You can access the fan motor directly from underneath. It's held in
place by three Phillips screws. You may need to move some wiring out of
your way.

Ok, I'll see if I can figure it out then. Thanks.
