Get a voltmeter and start troubleshooting before you go throwing money around on parts.

Last time my blower motor quit working, it turned out I knocked the power wire loose when I shoved my oil funnel into it's storage spot (between the firewall and inner fender).

But anywho, check for power and ground at the blower motor.

Glad to help but, it ain't just me.

It's the people on GMSB.

And, those relays can be found in the boneyard.
