Thanks for the advice but I have zero soldering and 4.5/10 general wiring repair skills... and this isn't a strong candidate as a teaching project.

Don't be put off by this, where your system is concerned. This is a problem that was a result of a dumbass move on my part while working with a spare blower plugged in but not bolted in.

You have a better chance of winning a major lottery than ever having to do this one.
