I am having a problem in finding where to connect the wire from the blower motor to the car firewall. I forgot where I removed it. Picture blow show end from blower motor with belive is a resistor and a ground spade connector. The orange wire from my harness connects to the main plug and the black wire from harmess connects to spade. Where do I secure these I think I need to put the space connector to ground it and also the holder on the resistor has what looks like a ground strap. See both picture. I can expalin more if not enough.




P.S. how can you test blower motor in place with only one wire comming off it??????

The brass connector in your second pic is secured under one of the blower motor mounting screws.

To test, connect 12v to the rubber insulated terminal on the blower and ground to the term mentioned above or the blower case.
