Where is the blower motor in a 2006 SANTE

[jkallen21]

I may need to replace the blower in my 2006 SANTE, but I need to find it in order to replace it! I can't seem to locate it - and I can't follow the noise because it's apparently dead - or stuck. If I can find it, I can fix it

Thanks for any location assistance

If it is the same location as a 99 then it is down low near the rear of the boat on the starboard side. You will probably have to remove the divider and maybe a ballast tank to get to it. Look for the black corrugated hose that exits the rear of the boat and follow that down to the bilge and you should see it.

as s_kelley describes the blower on our '05 211 was down low at the rear of the boat on the starboard side. I did have to remove divider and ballast tank to get to mine; quite a PITA on a 211.

Once you found the blower, hoe difficult was it to replace?

Once the ballast tank was out and I had a little room to work with, I was able to replace the blower without any issue. Just a pain to get to it

Yes, very easy to replace. A couple screws for the hold down bracket, swap the wiring and the blower hose is held on with zip ties. If your hose is getting dry and starting to crack then this is a good time to replace that as well.
