Only one wire is supposed to have power at the motor. the other one is ground and appears to be the source of your problem. The speeds are controlled from the ground side through the resister and the speed switch. The blower resister is the most common failure. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Of course there is. We don't throw parts at anything without testing first. You have to follow the wiring diagram with a test light that can indicate either power or ground. Make sure you actually have power arriving at the motor. Here is the wiring diagram ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

That's what we thought in the first place. The switch and the resister control the speeds by running the ground to various resisters. You need to be able to test whether the switch is sending ground to the resister at the various wires. The wire colors for the various speeds are 1 tan 2 Lt Green with Lt Blue 3 Lt Blue 4 Brown with tan The switch will send ground on that wire when that speed is selected ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Make sure the blower switch itself has a good ground input on the black wires. There are 2 of them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
