Default 79 Vet Blower Motor Problem

I wonder if anyone has any tech help on this:

Blower motor 1979 Vette without air conditioning inop. Blower runs fine when electrically jumped from the battery. Fuses check ok, but no power on the brown wire to the blower controls can be found.

If you have no power to the brown wire at the blower switch then the 25amp A/C fuse is blown,or not making contact in the fuse box or the wire between the fuse box and the switch is broken,providing your power windows are working.If you dont have power windows then you might have an issue with the orange wire coming from the ignition switch (#3 spade).
