Default Hey guys, what should I try next? Fan blower help

Hello all, good morning to everyone.

Need some help here from all you experts.

A few months back during a cold spell here in Sacramento I had my heater on max speed and on max hot for a 20 minute drive. The next day my fan stopped working. Checked the net was advised to tap under the dash where the fan is located, viola the fan kicked on. The tell-tail sign of a bad motor. Recieved my replacement yesterday installed it and nothing. No power at the plug. (fan does work checked it with the battery)

What should I try next? The fan does not run at any speed. When the resistor fails will the fan not run at all or just high or low speeds? Also saw some posts about the relay.
What do you guys suggest?
Also where is the blower fan relay? Fuse block under the hood by the battery?if so I swapped two relays around and fan would still not work.

Thanks guys!!!

It is fixed, I dont know how but that morning I pulled the car out of the garage and started tearing into the dash, traced wires all around the underside and removed the control unit from under the stereo. Couldn't find any cut or broken wires so I put everything back together and viola' fan kicked on. Not sure if unplugging the control unit did something or what but the fan is spinning.
I have heat and A/C
Thanks
