about 2 months ago, our heating became way weaker (which i suppose is one blower motor not working??) and just yesterday, whenever we turn the heating on, we hear a click, but no fan turns on. i have checked the fuses, and all are ok. how would i check the relays- where are they located in this car? anything else I can do? thanks so much!

If you have one blower out the air just blows across to the other blower and not out the duct work. The blower relay is inside the blower housing. Looking at the housing unit under the dash, you will see a large damper. Push open the damper and the relay will be down and to the outboard side of the housing. xj6 blower motors are notorious for bad motor brushes. Sometimes if you give the housing a good rap the motor will run but, it's only a temporary fix.
