front blower motor
The other day the wife's 01 expo,front blower motor took crapper.I called auto parts store and the guy had asked me am I sure its the motor,because there ate 3?,causes for it not to work.a relay under the hood,some kind of resister,may be behind the ac/heat control,or the blower motor itself.how would I isolate witch one is bad,or could it be something else.btw the rear air works.thanks all.

This is the quickest diagnostic step to perform. Because if you have power at the blower motor connector then the motor is no good.

Can't really overlook anything if you test for power at the connector. One meter lead on the positive wire and one meter lead on the negative wire. Then turn on the ignition and blower switch and see what you get...if anything.

Lots of places, the fuse, the switch, the wiring, the connectors, and the speed resistor. If the blower is original then it's 12 years old, so it's likely going to be the problem.
