No A/C blower function... what do I do?
 
I have a 300CE, and last week, the a/c motor died. I know this because I checked the a/c and it was really cold, and when I changed to high temp climate settings, nothing comes out. Anyway, I checked the fuse strip, and found a problem! The fuse was not blown, but one of the terminals that holds an end of the strip was. It looked like it arc'ed to ground, and so I thought replacing it (and the fuse) would do the trick. Unfortunately, it did not. I still have to check and see if current is flowing, but in the meantime, what else can I do? Is the motor shot, and if it is, how do I get to it? Is there another fuse to check? I'd appreciate any help...:)

IS there power to the fuse?? If not the electrical portion of the ignition switch is bad. There is a good chance that the whole problem is because the blower motor was drawing too much current(AMPS).
Blower motor is under the hood below the w/s wiper mech. The air intake BOX must be remover to get to the blower, about a 3 hour job.

Thanks, doc. I know about the ignition switch, I did some "searches" before I posted. I haven't checked the fuse for current, since I don't have a dvm. Will do that tomorrow... what is the typical amperage for the motor, anyway?
