Can’t find this exact replacement part, but I’m wondering if it weren’t similar to the 80 series, 4Runner, Tacoma. I bought one at NAPA with matching wiring but it just doesn’t quite bolt up.

It looks like the usual Japanese suppliers are out of stock. I see several on eBay being sold out of Lithuania for $144 USD. No idea on the sellers or the quality.

Well I went to the salvage and pulled one out of a later model Camry. The housing/base looks similar, but the connectors aren’t a T, and the motor is designed to rotate the wrong direction. I guess Lithuania it is!

Update: I learned that the blower motor rotates anti clockwise and the squirrel trap blades are set the opposite way accordingly. I had an idea to reverse the wiring and turn the squirrel trap over and see if that would work. When pulling the trap from
My original motor, I actually pulled the motor from its housing unintentionally.I cleaned it out by shaking and blowing air in it. I used PB blaster to try and lube the squirrel cage off and decided to just lube the bottom of the motor. It spins. There was no way to seat the motor back in the base and have the contacts go back through the slits so I cut and spliced the wires. I bored out the part where the contacts come through the base. I put the T connector on the contacts, slid it and the motor down onto the housing and spliced the wires back together. I’ll have to put some connectors on it later.
