Cpap blower motor

Post by Happydude » Fri Dec 11, 2020 7:19 pm

I have a cpap machine that was given to me to use a travel machine. But the machine keeps telling me that the blower motor is past it's life time for usage and the machine will not stay running. My question is; is there a way to bipass this setting so the machine blower will work. I have a reamed autoset H5i, SO series.
Thank you

Something has failed inside the blower. There's really nothing you can do to make it work consistently.
You could probably send it to acbio.com for repair but it is going to likely cost you more than it is worth.

Since it was free, it is yours to use as you please.
It appears to be unusable for its original purpose.
How do you feel about tearing it apart--just out of curiosity?
