Good morning.

The most common cause for this issue is a shorted to power blower resistor for the blower motor.

I attached the procedure and a wiring diagram for the resistor for you below.

6. Disconnect the blower heater resistor connector (A).
7. Loosen the resistor fixing screw and remove the resistor.

Caution: Use the short length positive (+) screwdriver to remove the screw

8. Replace the resistor with a new one.
9. Reinstallation is the reverse order of the removal.
