Heat stopped working
My heat stopped working this morning, checked all the fuses and relays and they're good. Oreilly recommended a new blower motor, the guys at Advanced told me to follow the wiring, I went ahead and ordered the blower motor and I'll most likely try it out and see if that fixes it, if not ill just return it. It's not even blowing to let you guys know. Anybody had this problem?

Does the fan work at the highest speed? If so, then your blower resistor opened. That's a safety feature to prevent a fire. A new blower resistor is ~$20.

Before go through the pain of changing out the blower. Try running a wire from the positive side of the battery to the positive wire for the blower do the same for the negative side. Just to make sure that it is the blower motor first then go from there.
