The motor has 4 settings per the slider switch in the dash.
I used the "bi-lev" setting selector setting
All tests were made with the motor running.
1: 14.6v
2: went between 14.5-14.7
3: 14.5v
4: 14.6v
These are all prettymuch the same.
I verified that the voltage was 0 when selecting "off" on the series of buttons on the dash as well just to idiot check.
Ground voltage with the fan on (same method, except into the ground wire) gave between 0.05v and 0.11v with the positive lead of the meter connected to the negative wire on the fan and the negative lead of the meter touching the negative pole of the battery.

I can't explain your results.
Voltage should be 14+ on HIGH blower speed, with progressively less voltage as the selector switch is moved to lower-speed settings.
Getting the same voltage on all speed settings doesn't make sense unless the motor windings are open, in which case the motor wouldn't run.
I don't know what to tell you.
