Default AC Fan help

For some reason my AC fan it not blowing. I changed out the control in the cab and the blower motor resistor
. If I drive about 50mph I can feel some cold are blowing through.

What should I look at. Where is the fan located?

I'm assuming you checked the fuses? Fuse 22 under the dash is a 10 amp fuse and fuse 105 under the hood, a 40 amp fuse.

The blower motor resistor is installed right into the air box like 4 inches away from the blower motor. It's round and screwed in with like 5 screws and has a two wire connector with fairly large wires going to it.

Fuses are all good. I pulled the harness to the fan motor. I ran a direct ground and hot from the battery. I assume the fan should have came on.

I guess I should replace the fan motor???

Yeah if you put 12 volts to the motor it should spin.

I popped a new blower motor in and that did the trick. It does not blow as hard as the old one did. I guess becauses its after market. But speed control and all works so Im happy.

Thanks again
