I don't know for sure. I do remember seeing papers on a suburban and I can't find the model number on the unit that is stuffed under the cabinet.

Answer

remove the outside cover you should be able to see the blower wheels,try to turn them by hand,they should spin freely,if not motor is seized and needs replaced,there should not be excess movement up and down,if so moter needs replaced.

Earlier in the day I had removed the outside panel and I saw the motor but do not recall seeing the blower wheels, but I did see a circuit board and the 2 exhaust tubes.

Let me clarify: are the blower wheels like squirrel cages?
