This is strrange, but the 30 amp fuse strip was the culprit. It looked fine and I did test it for power as one of the first things I checked, but today when I rechecked it, it had power at one end but not the other.
I didn't have an exact fuse in my box but did have this 30amp fuseable link, so I made it work. I restested for power and buttoned the blower/wiper assembly back up and it all works!

Thanks for help to all.
