    You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille (blower motor)

    I'm pretty positive my blower motor is shot. Drove to work this morning, blew air just fine, come out, nothing. Something is happening because when I move through the settings on the fan dial, I can hear a faint click. Just no air. I haven't checked the fuse, as it's dark and a little cold at the moment. Just looking for a little confirmation. Could it be anything else outside of a blown fuse or blown motor?

    At least it's an easy fix if it's definitely the blower motor. Takes 5 min.

    Fuse, relay, controller or motor...... but most likely the motor.

    Id take a test light or voltmeter to see if the motors getting power to quickly rule out anything else.

    Thanks guys. I got so busy with work today I forgot to come in and mention that it worked fine this morning. Wonder if it may be a contact issue...I'll take a voltmeter and start probing when I have time. Luckily we don't have another cold snap coming to south Texas for a week or so, so I've got some time to learn how to use the meter and correctly interpret the results. My XK has had electrical bugs from the day I got it.

    Well, I spoke too soon. More evidence to poor contact...yesterday after work it wouldn't work, then suddenly came on. Was fine the rest of the evening. This morning, nothing..tried turning it off/on rapidly and it barely started working. Gonna swap the motor this weekend.
