OP -

I just replaced my blower motor, after fighting with it for a while.

If you drop the lower trim cover below the glovebox door, you'll see the blower motor in the RH corner close to the firewall. There is a two pin connector (B+ and GND) that powers the blower. If you wiggle (with the HVAC controls on "HI") the connector and the blower functions, but then slows or stops completely after a short period of time, (Logically) you would assume a poor electrical connection, but you might be wrong. If the blower motor is dying, one of the symptoms is intermittent failure.

If your two-pin connector looks corrosion free, then the blower could be at fault. My new unit (from RockAuto) cost about $50.

Good luck!
