The front blower on the van is not working. I have checked the fuse and the relay and both are okay. The blower in the rear of the fan is working fine. Any suggestions as to what is wrong with the front blower and how I can fix it?

THANK YOU!!

Locate the blower motor and unplug it connector
turn key on and place the fan switch on high
check at the connector wire for power and ground if you have both remove and replace the motor if not let us know what is missing

I'd get at the blower motor connector, run a couple of jumpers for B+ and ground, use an inline fuse, see if the motor will run.

You might be able to get at the connector by removing the glove box.

The resistor and hvac control module, control the ground side of the blower motor. No ground, no blower activity. Yes, you need voltage also.
