My blower fan stopped, but before I rip into that area to replace it, I wanted to ask, is there anything else I should check first? I've checked the fuse, and the regulator was replaced 3 years ago. I would hate to rip into it, replace the fan, and find out it still doesn't work because something else was causing it.

Also, there's obviously a secondary fan, because I can still run my defroster, and it blows some hot air out, not a lot, but some.

Thanks,
