Default I can see the blower fan through the wiper tray?Is this right?

I removed the cover on my W/S wipers, and on the passenger side I can look into the blower motor and fan,from the wiper valley.(theres a screen on both sides to keep leaves out of the fenders,on the passenger side just between the screen and fender if I look down I can see the fan&blower moter) is this the same with all 75s?, I have a vert.. just qurious,Ive never seen this before. I had a 77 before and dont remember the a/c intake being so visable. :shocked:

Easy to see how debris can stop the flow of air across the evaporator coils.

Maybe I didnt describe my question very well?, I wondered if its right to see the blower moter and fan from the inside of the wiper valley?

No, you should'nt, unless a mouse or a "Bubba" put a hole there. :confused:

It appears that he removed the cover plates at the bottom of the wiper arm. Wouldn't this then allow some visibility into this area?

I can see my blower motor/fan on 82 with the wiper valley screen removed on the passenger side when the fresh air door is open.Start the engine and put A/C in maximum position and door will close and then you can no longer see the blower motor/fan.
