Does it only work on high? Does it work on any speed but high?

Then there are two causes left. The fusable link.(Doubt it without other symptoms). Which leaves the blowermotor. When the brushes wear out, it's done.

Just a suggestion, but I would apply 12 volts directly from the battery to the blower motor to verify it's condition prior to pulling it out. Good luck!

The connector on the firewall connects the speed control resistors, if it opens up all the low speeds will not work. There might be an inline fuse over by the alternator for high speed. The voltage for high speed comes from the horn relay I think. Check for voltage at the blower motor, see what ya got
