Hey guys, any home/commercial A/C techs in the house?

I installed a minisplit A/C system in my garage when I first moved in, down here in Florida. It's a Soleus 18,000 BTU unit, and it has worked great for the past 3 years.

Now... not so much. The indoor fan motor has failed, and I'm wondering if anybody might have some tips on how to repair it. I've got a new blade assembly and a new fan motor, but no real idea how to take it apart. A commercial tech is coming out tomorrow to recover the refrigerant so I can crack the lines and get the indoor unit down off the wall, but that's the end of my plan. I've searched the Internet to no avail; all I can find is the install guide I already have.

Any help appreciated!

JP, I'll ask my friend he knows A/C, if I can find him,

No worries. Fan motor replaced. No doubt the old one was toast. I'm looking forward to a nice cool weekend. :)
