Hello,

Inoperative blower fan can be due to a bad blower relay, wiring issue or a bad resistor or the motor itself.

The blower relay is located in the under-hood fuse box (see diagram below).
Check for any corrosion or burnt pin(s).
This relay can also be tested:

If the relay is good and there is power to the blower motor, then the issue is likely a bad blower motor.

You also want to make sure that none of the wire got loose/disconnected or pinched during the radio install.

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
