do this first . go to fuse panel -to the right side of fuses is a 30amp circuit which has a red reset button . [turn ignition off ] then reset . if, it blows again you have a short in motor resister , motor , or control switch . you can also take the motor out and wire it direct to battery .

if the blower doesn't turn on , the resistor by the blower motor might be bad. it is easy to remove and check visually for broken coils. These are available but kind of pricey. I went thru (2) of these then replaced the blower motor, also pricey. everything works as it should now. I have a 1994 n/a capri with 43,000 miles
