Q: How to troubleshoot blower motor issues in Mercury Capri?
A: Make sure the battery is charged and the fuse is intact. Check the blower motor and resistor assembly connections. Check the fuse, connections, and battery. Connect a voltmeter to the blower motor connector and test the blower switch. If there is voltage but the blower motor isn't functioning or the readings are high, the motor may be faulty. Disconnect the blower motor resistor's connector, connect a jumper wire and an ammeter, and test the blower switch. If readings are high, the blower motor is likely faulty. If readings are off in one or two switch positions, the resistor assembly may be faulty.
Q: How to remove the blower motor without air conditioning for 1985 and 1986 Mercury Capri?
A: To remove the blower motor without air conditioning, begin by taking out the glovebox and unscrewing the lower duct.

Q: How to remove and install the blower motor and assembly in Mercury Capri with and without air conditioning for 1979 through 1984 Mercury Capri?
A: For models without AC, remove the right register duct, ventilator control assembly, glovebox liner, and ventilator grille. Detach the ventilator assembly and remove the blower wheel and motor. To install, reverse these steps. For models with AC, remove the glovebox liner, disconnect the vacuum hose, remove the bolt securing the instrument panel, and the trim panel. Remove screws and nuts securing the blower housing and air inlet duct assembly. Disconnect the blower motor wiring and remove the mounting plate. If removed, reinstall the blower wheel, secure it, and install the blower motor. Tape the wiring to the air inlet duct, place the assembly back, connect the vacuum hose, then install the glovebox liner and secure the panels.
