No fan movement at all-no power.
Brentwood is a 10-15 minute ride from us.

The fan itself is kinda easy to take out, 2 or 3 screws and a vacuum line. I had to take mine out to get the harness out.

is yours cable or [COLOR="Blue"]hydraulic[/COLOR]?
:screwy:

The blower is easy to get to even if there isnt a little man up in there handing it to you:D

1  check your 30A fuse

The next part is where it helps to have an old 300-500w computer power supply handy.

2  you said you have no power, Ill assume the fuse is ok. perhaps i didnt see where you answered that question.

3  place the blower in the off position and have the ign sw to off
  insert fused 12v source into the orange wire of the blower motor.
  flip on the blower controll to low,med,medhigh,high.
  if blower turns on all settings, your fuse is blown or the AC/Heater
  selector switch is defective or needs repair

4  If by chance you explained the symptom wrong and the above step works only in high, your blower resistor pack is defective.  To repair, remove it and replace the tiny onboard thermal fuse which is blown.

5  Check to see if a mouse moved in and built a nest, like my white coug.  You said you have no power coming to the blower, please explain how you determined this.

JCASSITY. Thankyou that’s really good and specific know how. Sure it will help. And no I have know idea what’s wrong other then it don’t work. Believe it or not it hasn’t worked for 2 years now just haven’t bothered cause I only drive the car on perfect days in the colder weather. Now that the motor was rebuilt I’m trying to put mileage on it and on the cold nights going to and coming from work.

OK checked the fuse and its ok, w/ignition on and fan on high checked the power going into the blower w/a volt meter and no power so I doubled and pulled the plug on the blower/fan and ran 12v and ground to it and bam it turned on so ban it turn on. so somewhere in-between is my problem.

OK I figured it out on the back of the heater panel in the dash there’s a wire harness w/4 inline pr0ngs in the very back of it I just have to connect it. That’s the easy part the hard part is finding it. Since this hasn’t worked since I replaced my dash I figured its buried back there somewhere. I pulled the radio and all I can’t find it does anyone know where in the harness it might be so I now where to start. That would be great.thankyou.
