Desperate for heat

Hook some leads to your blower from the battery or similar and see if its working. Worth a shot to absolutely ensure the blower is working.

I will do that in the morning (I’m at work)

I will add, I have enlisted the help of the best mechanic I’ve ever met and will be meeting with him in the morning. I wasn’t able to get to him prior to tomorrow due it being a 40 minute drive and the extreme cold causing the windows to ice over.

I will definitely update when the problem is solved. I appreciate everyone’s help on this! This forum is an incredible group of people and I definitely am a member for life now

Well, this isn’t the update I was hoping to give but I’ve come to the end of diagnosing the blower.

The blower works when hooked to a power source.

The engine is at correct temp.

What was found this morning is a short somewhere in the run between the 60amp heater fuse and the blower motor itself. I was not about to spend the time
And effort on tearing through the wiring to find it so I have tapped into the power on the remote start and wired in a manual toggle switch to operate the blower as a stand alone unit.

Thanks again for all the help everyone.

Whatever works buddy. I am happy for you that you have it working.

Perhaps you could run a new wire from the 60 amp heater fuse to the blower motor? That would restore blower function!

You said you did this but …Follow instructions in post 17 using your voltimeter. You’ll likely find that it has failed. Been there done that.

That will be something I do in the spring.

Would it be easier to just...
Move to Miami?
Ok, maybe Hawaii?

Costa Rica, maybe?

Costa Rica, maybe?

Unfortunately, Not everyone is a billionaire and can just ship the car over whatever it's cold.

Forget the car.
You can get another LC once you get down there.
