Before giving up, test it out by doing the following:

The two wires that come out the bottom of the blower housing are the motor wires. Hot wire those to a 12v source. If it runs, it's not the motor, and more probable the switch or the power getting to the switch.

If it doesn't, then you're in for some fun. I FINALLY changed mine's out the last weekend ... taking my time a bit and tidying up some wires along the way, it took me 7 hours. No doubts about it, removing the dash is the way to go (thanks Chris!).

-- Kane ... who did spend some additional time on rewiring up the stereo/changer, painting portions of the upper-half of the dash black, and installing in the iPd molded plastic dash cover.
