Hello.

It sounds like the HVAC controller is having a problem, but just to be sure can you confirm the part you replaced is the same in the diagrams below? Also, I have included the blower fan wiring so you can see how the system works.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know.

Cheers, Ken

There is no relay just the power resistor and the controller. Can you see if the red and black wire has power to power resistor? Also check the ground (black) wire.

Here are are two guides that should help:

and

https://www.2carpros.com/articles/how-to-check-wiring

Use can use a test tight as well.

Please run down these guides and report back.

Cheers, Ken

If the blower motor runs and you already replaced the power resistor it only leaves the control head. Here is a diagram to help you remove it I would try a used one but you may need to get it initialized.

Is there any wiring damage that you can see? Has the car been wet inside?

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken
