Default No heat, Blower motor doesn't come on...

Ok so...the heater valves work, If I pull the slider from side to side it will open and close as it's supposed to, however, if I move the blower setting to 1 and so forth nothing comes on...It's spur of the moment, It's DUMB cold, haven't gotten to look everything over, Could this be just a FUSE??? If so anyone know where the fuse for the blower motor is located?? Or has anyone come into a similar problem???

well first off the blower fuse is located in the fuse panel under the dash on drivers side. there is a panel that has the locations labeled. should be 30 amp fuse. 2nd you can test the blower motor itself by unplugging the connector and using jumper wires to hook the blower directly to the battery terminals and see if it comes on.

3rd it may be the resistor that controls fan speed. its behind the glove box above the blower. youll see the plug.

Pull the motor and check it. Apply voltage to it and see if it works.
Note: On other cars I've worked on with this same type issue its been the blower motor. Regardless even when it gets voltage it should move so its a no brainer.

Looks like that's my only option at this point, I put the fuse in, switched it through 1-4, nothing, although when I press the AC Button, the light does come on, so I know it's nothing wrong with the selector and it's getting voltage at least to that point...

what light comes on? the ac button lights up? that has no control over the blower. it activates the clutch on the ac compressor

Well in any case there is nothing going on at levels 1-4...so i'm thinking resistor or motor...
