    Does anyone know what the power usage (or more specifically the amp draw) for the oem heater blower/fan/squirrel cage motor? I would guess its in my FSM, but I don't have that in front of me. I run an aux. heater with fan motor that pulls about 5 amps (60W), and assume its in that same ball park.

    thanks

    The breaker is 9 amps. I didn't see any specs on the motor.
    PM351 is the cross reference to the replacement motor so maybe you can find its specs and get an idea or test yours?
