95 sol Heat doesn't work after fender bender
The only damage my sol sustained was passenger fender, headlight and marker light casings, lower balljoint and axle. What took the brunt of the impact was the very far right front bumper and my 16x8 rim. Balljoint snapped instantly on impact and axle shaft and spline was ripped from tranny as car kept sliding and tires angle exceeded axles limits. No scratches on the frame or bends or welts
My led headlight was still useable and marker/blinker wiring was intact just needed new clip to hold the light.
I do know I'm currently having an issue with my radio going into protected mode after only a lil bit of using it after resetting it(sometimes its less then a song sometimes its half hour but I believe that's in the door speakers wiring(when I attempted to do the amp in my car 1st time ever doing one I wasnt paying close attention to how close pos n neg speaker wire were n they touched. Instant protect mode cause radio was on. Learned to be more careful and turn stuff off even if its speaker wire)
I check the connections on the back of the fan unit all seem intact. Relays and fuses dont seem broken. Could the blowers themselves break from the jarring of the impact. It was rough but like an absorbed rough. The car I hit was a buddies b5 audi and his bumper has those shock absorber
I have an ohm/volt meter somewhere just got to dig it up. I'll start by checking fuse and relay power. Not sure where the blower motor itself is(never had to deal with one before) I'll be watching a video on it once I find ohm meter but any helpful advise would be appreciated it's starting to get cold

when I put the ohm meter to the fuse and relay spots what should they reading be if they are good? And on the meter you can change the settings by turning the dial. What should that be set to to get accurate reading? I know I want it in the ohms section of the dial but what one?

What's missing is a description of what electrical tests you actually want to perform and why you want to perform them.
The devil is in the details.
It may be better to describe your actual car problems.

I believe I want to be searching what's getting power what's not. Like fuse and relay and if they are each good. then I'd need to find out where my blower motor is make sure all wires to it are good and check for power at its point. Once I get there I should be able to figure out if the motors themselves are bad and replace them. But things never go that simple for me. Like my tranny issue. Replaced axle seal and it still leaks. Got my new wheel bearing n hubs so I'll be doing all of it sat.
