If the blower suddenly stopped working it sounds like a blown or cracked strip fuse. The strip fuse is separate from the fuse box in a small black plastic compartment (approx. 1" wide x 2" long) with a hinged lid and a heavy gauge wire on each end. Open the lid to check the condition of the strip fuse ... look for a hairline crack across the center. To replace simply loosen the 2 Philips head screws, slide the old pieces out and the new fuse in ... the fuse has slotted ends.
