likely the fuse#8 is burned up... very common. when the bearings on these motors dry out, the ampdraw on the wiring climbs gradually, and it heats up the conductor and the fuse... JUST enough to burn up the holder... but not enough to pop the fuse. plastic fuses actually melt without popping the element...

most rewire the fuse for a mini auto fuse, and fix the problem.

of course... you still need to grease the blower bearings, or replace the motor.
