Default Aircondition Blower Problem - Need help

I just got a climate control ECU and replaced it thinking it was the problem. Checked all fuses related to ac and heater blower, all checked working. Any other places I missed. AC compressor working and cooling but the blower isnt. Is it easy to replace the blower if that is broken? Any suggestions about trouble shooting the problem? Any, relay related to the blower? Please help, too hot to drive. Thanks

Sorry, Need to add to previous post. Also the heater is working but not air coming out. Lastly, do they have the same blower for AC and heater? Thanks

Pull out the fan jump it with a 12 volt source. If it does not work replace it. Rave CD has the details on how to remove.

I saw the blower underneath the passenger side. Saw a RED and BLUE power leads, are those the main power wires to blower. I have the RAVE thing but cant find the instructions but the removal of the whole unit. Anyway, Do I really have to remove the blower to test it? Or, I can just tap to the blower leads and jump it to a 12 volt source? How often does those fan need replacing. The dealer replaced it 3 years ago as the work sheet I found mentioned. Thanks again.

If it works, which is more likely to replace. I saw 2 separate component which is identical on RAVE manual the resistor and the blower relay. Anyways to test relays?

Pull the plug to the blower. Test to see if you are getting power to the blower with a meter on the 2 wires you unplug. If you are getting the right voltage, jumper voltage to the motor just to double check. If you are not getting the right voltage, still jump the motor. That will tell you where to go next.

I did precisely that. Im looking for a wire to jump it right now. I saw that there is power going to the leads when the AC is on. I'll keep you posted. I will test the blower separately. Thanks

How much power is going to the leads? did you test voltage between the 2 leads? pretty sure the resistors are on the negative side..
