The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The Electrical Bay help rebuilding harrison heater motors

can you all recommend anybody who can rebuild my harrison heater motors for my 1946 chevy?
the wires are very frayed, and i cannot figure out how to completey disassemble the motors. some parts are press fitted.

thanks in advance

find an auto electric shop in your area and inquire there, might do just as well to find a replacement motor, from them or a FLAPS

IF it must be stock and you cannot buy a replacement your only choice is to rebuild.

IF it runs now then you may get away with just truing up the commutator & undercutting the mica. Wash windings with soap n water and paint brush chase with isopropyl and oven dry. Find a motor shop that will dip n bake new varnish. Reassemble and test.

IF a rewind is needed that is going to cost $$$$. Large motor shops more than likely will not touch it.

Automotive electrical rebuilder may be willing to do it.

You need to find a local " Emmet's" Fix it Shop.

im very much willing to buy new ones, but the truck is 6v.
one of the motors (there are 2) can be completely disassembled.
but the other one has the outside of the motor press fitted into the case via little louvers.
the deal is that the wires coming out of the motor are completely frayed.
so all I really want to do is solder a new wire and then get them running.
I dont think they need rewinding.
i can rebuild the engine, paint it, but when it comes to electrical motors Im a complete clutz, I cant make them work, never could.

I ordered a Factory Air replacement 6V motor from Advance for less than $30.00 to replace the one in my defroster. Fitting it required only cutting the mounting bolts & slightly massaging the mounting holes with a file. You can only find it by searching using the part number 35512.
