You are talking about the blower not the heat, right?

You may have an ignition switch problem. Does anything else electrical not work after the engine is started?

Does the rear window defogger also stop working? If so, the ignition switch is probably bad.

Here's how to test it:

What fuse?

If unplugging the blower motor prevents the fuse from blowing, then the motor likely is bad due to a short inside.

You must test before replacing parts. Your strategy will get expensive fast.
