I have a problem with my blower fan not coming on it staerted out when I would turn it on mainy on the feat setting I would get a horrible rubber burning smell and it continued doing this for a week and one day it quite all together. I have changed the blower motor and we tested the new one and it works, but we had put in it and the blowr fan did not turn on, we did look at the blower resistor and I got new one of that too and the blower fan does not run on still. We have also checked the fuses and they are fine. And i'm running out of ideas of what could be wrong?

with the burning smell I would check the wires going to the heater motor. What it sounds like that a wire grounded out and burnt through the wire.

Thanks for ur info...I guess we did find otu what the problem was I guess we checked the fuses but didn't notice that on the fuse box under the sterring wheel the power input was completely burnt out so yeh that was the main problem....we got a new fuse box and everything so it works pretty good now. Thanks for the help
