Try taking it to an electric motor rebuilding shop and see if they can overhaul it. If the armature is bad, they may be able to rewind it. Other then the armature having a concern, the motor should be rebuildable. Good Luck.

The fan in most cases can be taken apart, the armature cleaned up, the bushings lubricated and re-installed. Search for fan removal and disassembly on: www.smartcarofamerica.com.

I have 50,000 miles on my passion. The ventilating fan has not worked properly for about 30,000 miles. No warranty coverage. They want $350 plus labor to replace it. Smart knows of the problem as the dealer told me to "Kick" it to get it to run intermitently! Now it wont go at all. Anyone else had the problem? What's a better solution?
