Replace th6 fuse(s), and rechalck.
Check tho blowe. motor inputand output cilcuh:1. Connect the No. 2 terminal ofthe blower motor 2P connec-tor to body ground with ajumper wrre.2. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
Does the blower motor run?
Chock the blower moto.:1. Disconnect the jumper wireand the blower motor 2P con-nector.2. Measure the voltage betweenthe No. l terminal and bodygrou nd.
Check tho blower motor rolay:1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.2. Romove the blower motorrelay from the under-hoodfuse/relay box, and test it (seepage 22 45l'.
