'96 T&C AC blower not running, last chapter.

I attempted to remove the Junction block, which is a big kinda wiring and
fuse box under the dash. The AC relay, which seems the be the cause of
the blower not running, is under the box and in the factory shop manual it
does NOT say anything about having to remove the entire dash to remove the
junction block.

Well, I can tell you that unless you are a contortionist, which I am not,
maybe you DO need to remove the dash to get out that block. After playing
with it for over an hour, I finally decided to just put everything back
together. I found a red 12 ga. wire at the top of the steering column,
probably from the flashers, ran a 12ga. wire from it, fused it with a 40a.
fuse and attached it to the blue wire at the fan motor. It works like a
charm, except that now it does not go off with the key. But hey, I'll
take out the dash NEXT time it's COOL.

Well, according to the shop manual, you're supposed to take those 4-10mm
nuts loose that hold in the 40-wire connectors. I just COULD not get the
upper left one loose. I could get the NUT loose but all the pulling in
the world could not get the connector out of the block. So I gave up and
put it all back to tegether and ran a wire of my own. Someday when I have
the time and inclination, I'll do it right.
