Default blower motor dead

Unhooked my air conditioning switches and the switch for the rear defroster, now my blower motor doesn't work. Fuse is OK but it seems like it's not even getting juice to the switch. Are these switches somehow tied together? Can't tell anything from my assembly manual and electrical is not my strong suit so any suggestions on what to look for will be appreciated
Thanks

The electrical troubleshooting manual describes them all in one section. I couldn't decipher it but that leads me to suspect that the switches are tied together.

These switches are tied together. When the rear window defrost switch is ON the blower motor (fan) cannot blow on high.

Thanks for the responses. I'll try hooking the defroster switch back up and see if that works.
