I would not replace the blower until you try the resistor. 9 times out of 10 it is the resistor that is bad. You can drop the blower motor easily and see if it spins freely. If it does, wait to try the new blower motor resistor before buying one.

Here's Bill Curlee's post from the link 73Corvette provided...

The resistors on the board are most likely smoked like the ones in the picture:

When you order the resistor, be sure to have your VIN handy. They made running changes in these and you'll want the VIN to verify you get the correct one.

Good luck... GUSTO

Vettelover - Can you try and punctuate your posts? Not doing so makes them really hard to read and hard to understand.

I got mine at NAPA, lifetime warranty I like. You will feel like a pretzel getting this item out, the new one fits right in, no problem.
