Default 924S Heater blower not working

Hello All,

The heater motor on my 1987 924S will not work at any speed. The AC fan does work fine.

Any tips as to where to start? I have read up on a couple of other sites but have found nothing that helps so far. I was going to try to open up the housing where the blower sits but don't know how to get at it.
How do I open up the blower housing without breaking things? It looks to be glued down.

With the fan not going at all, is it possible that the problem is a resistor inside of this housing, or should I start somewhere at the fuses? I'm not adept at electrical diagnosis so I'm really hoping this is just a plug and play part replacement!

I'd try fuses along with this:

Thanks Chunkerz. However mine is an older version than this. I have the 87 924S which I think is similar to a pre 85.5 944. The fix you are referring to looks to be a new model.

You could try a new 3 way fan switch--fix? maybe.

The blower motor resistor is on top of the AC/heater core box- passenger side. Cannot get to it unless you drop the entire unit and disconnect the AC lines.
