Airbag/blower motor

I posted this on the Superduty forum to no avail, so I will try it here. About a week ago I noticed my airbag light was on. I don't know exactly when it happened. And then I noticed my blower motor wasn't blowing any AC. The AC kicks on, just no blower motor. So I started pulling fuses and found a 10 amp fuse under the dash that is clear at the top, right corner. So I replaced it. Turned the key and it blew again. So I unhooked the airbag in the steering wheel and replaced the fuse, turned the key and it blew again. I have the AC selector to off, so I am assuming the power to the blower motor is off. I realize air bag stuff is touchy and don't plan on removing it anymore. I just want to make sure it is not something else before going to the dealer. The airbag light doesn't flash, it comes on and stays on. Let me know what y'all think. Thanks.

I wouldn't play with an airbag error.....and as much as I hate to say it....the dealer is where you should go with it. Would hate to see someone get hurt.

Can anyone give the manual description of that particular fuse? I don't have a cover or a manual myself. It is in the block under the dash, driver's side. If you are looking at the fuse block, it is located clear at the top, right hand corner. It is a 10 amp fuse. Please and thank you.

That fuse goes to the airbag module, and blower motor. If it is blown.....there is a problem. I will WARN YOU once again......the airbag circuit is not something to take lightly. Please let a dealer look at it.
