Product details
CWA981091 is a genuine Panasonic air swing motor, the small 12V DC motor that tilts the airflow louvre on the front of a split system indoor unit. It is listed for the Panasonic CS-W12EKR. If the louvre has stopped moving, sits half open or points at an odd angle, this motor is the usual first suspect. Compare CWA981091 with the label on the old motor once you have it out.
Panasonic aircon louvre stuck or not swinging
The air swing motor turns the horizontal louvre that directs air up or down out of the indoor unit, and it also closes the louvre when the system is switched off. It is driven by the indoor unit's main board. When the motor fails, the louvre stays stuck in one spot, won't close fully, twitches without moving, or makes a clicking or grinding noise as it tries. Air then blows in the wrong direction, often straight at the ceiling or down onto people. A broken louvre pin or a seized louvre can mimic the same fault, so check the louvre turns freely by hand with the power off.

Replacing the louvre motor
Isolate the air conditioner at its circuit breaker before taking the front cover off, as the indoor unit is hard wired. Note how the motor shaft engages the louvre and how its lead runs back to the board, then swap the motor across and route the lead the same way. Move the louvre gently by hand first to make sure nothing binds. A licensed air conditioning technician or electrician should carry out the repair.
Questions about this part
The louvre on my unit is stuck. Is it always the motor?
Not always. A cracked louvre, a broken pivot pin or a fault on the main board can stop the swing too. If the louvre moves freely by hand with the power off but still won't move under power, the motor is the most likely cause.
