99 Escort/Tracer Nothing from Blower

Sorry to make yet one more of these blower motor posts
Um, yeah - I am getting no blower fan no matter what speed it is set on. Checked all the possibly related fuses, and they all seem to be good. Where are the Blower Motor, Blower Relay, and Resistor block located? I should be able to test them out and figure this out.

I went to my grandparents' house fan was working fine. Got in to leave, and no fan at all now.

Thanks for your help!

Ah - I found it. The connector from the blower on the resistor block is all burnt/corroded/melted:

The other 4-wire connector from the switch is ok, but this one is trashed. I can replace this, but what happened in the first place? It can't be from overcurrent, right? Because the wiring is 10AWG and the fuse is 30A. So why did this connector get so hot?

The connector on my car melted too. Guess it's a design problem....

Sounds to me like the blower motor went bad. The brushes got to a point where they wore out completely on your last trip. Then when you started it back up the motor just drew current until melting point of the wire insulation.

It's located on the passenger firewall. Looks like a top hat sort of with 3 bolts in it. Easy to change.

Something happened on my husband's '97 Escort.
