I am dumb to anything mechanical esp. on a car.again thanks for your help & I have enjoyed going through the different forums.
Glad you found the problem and thanks for posting back how it is going.
It would be a good idea to check the blower motor amp draw on it.
Bad blower motor with a high amp draw will wipe out the relays and modules.
Good luck
