The fan on my 98 z71 quit. I am not sure if it is the fan motor or a switch problem. Any advice on how to tell without tearing out the fan motor, I understand that is a fairly lengthy process. How do you acess the switch module? Thanks for any help.

1st thing is to check for power at the blower. 2 wires, purple is power and black is ground. Key on and move the switch through all positions. If no power it could be the switch or the blower "high" relay or fuses or wiring. To get to the switch you need to "pop off" the instrument panel cover.
