Default no blower motor

73 with no blower operation , jumped blower motor so that works good.
No power at any setting, where is the power feed location? Does anyone have a wiring diagram for this circuit?

The ground for the blower motor is a wire going to a right-angle lug which is just mounted under one of the blower mounting screws. Corrosion, etc. can cause that ground to go bad. Try scraping a bit of black paint off the blower mounting plate and running a separate ground wire from the engine block (or other grounded metal). Turn the ignition key to "on" and the blower motor on then make the ground with the jumper wire to see if the blower runs. Otherwise, it's a fuse, the blower motor relay, or a power wire problem.
