Run a test light to the blower's electrical terminal to see if power is there. If not you have an issue upstream from there so you'll need a schematic. I would suspect the dash fan speed control as those tend to go bad sooner than the other components.

There’s power to the fan, how often do resistors fail?
ill do fan switch later today.

Replaced the fan switch. Still nothing, could it be the resistor or the fan itself?
also it’s not stuck on one speed, nothing happens, Monday while running I turned heat off it was working, switched back to heat and nothing.
thanks for the help
using a towel for defrost isn’t fun

In my only reply I suggested you test for power AT THE BLOWER TERMINAL---have you done that?

There is power to the fan at the wire that plugs into the fan.
