Sorry for the terrible English on my original email. I was half asleep when typing it.

What I should have said was that my evaporator fan is blowing 1 of the 2 fuses that are in the closet.

Once I get home I'm going to dig into this wiring. I've also got an issue where the low speed radiator fan isn't turning on. That's a whole other subject though.

I do appreciate all of the help!

Cheers, Jason Ellis
