The blower motor quit in my 74 Ramcharger. The motor itself is good. The fuse is good. The resistors for the speeds are OK. Whats the best way to track down the problem???

From there I'd unplug the switch and run a jumper between the wires for the different speeds and see what you get...

mine turned out to be the blower motor was lazy/ lightly seized. It wouldn't turn over by itself, but it would turn slowly if you helped it start by hand. I put some light oil on the shaft and she got wet and came back to life, works fine now.
