RW> I would have done that as well. Probably some Chinese copy of the real   
   RW> thing.   
      
   It was.. Made in Taiwan (TCY Brand).  RockAuto said they didn't have a record   
   of returns on that part due to noise, but the one I had was VERY loud.  It was   
   just a really loud electrical humm.     
      
   I received the replacement blower motor last night (made by Four Seasons),   
   installed it right away and it's good to go!  No loud hum or other strange   
   sounds.  The "hot" wires still get hot, but nothing like before.  The original   
   blower was pulling way too many amps and was melting the connector and the   
   wires were too hot to even touch.
