Big wires are for big current, all others are just for controls switching etc..
Happen to know where the other side of the plug goes to? The blower side plug seems fine, nothing burnt or melted.

Any chance it could be a loose connection on the back of the console screen? I had someone pull that out a while back (was considering if I could mod it) and that was around the same time as the problem starting. Before I waste time and probably break plastic screws holding the screen in, is there it worth looking back there?
