Default A/C & blower motor help

So i know this isn’t an LT1 question but it still is in an LT car so hopefully you guys know a lot about the electronics on these cars.

My problem lies not within the blower motor itself because i just swapped in a brand new 4 seasons motor and still doing the same issue.

My issue is my blower motor just randomly shuts on and off. Sometimes it’ll come on fine and work properly for a couple days and then all of a sudden the blower motor won’t come on for days no matter what the settings are on. Its really frustrating because im currently in nashville right now and I’ve been without heat (blower motor won’t come on) for over a month in a row. Its been that long since the last time the motor wanted to kick on. Its been an average of 34 degrees here.

Things I’ve checked are the fuses under the hood and in the car, and have swapped in a new blower motor and still nothing.

Can anyone give me any further help on what I should check next?

Did the plug look good to the blower motor? When it shuts off, is there still power to blower motor?

Does it do the same thing at all speeds? Check the fuse and its contacts in the fuse block for damage (HVAC fuse). The blower motor circuit is pretty simple, there's not many things it could be. Start with the easy stuff and we can go from there.

ok guys, so this same issue is still not resolved. I've been so aggravated with the whole thing I've ignored it for awhile since the weather was warming up and no luck after replacing all fuses & relays, checked all wiring at the hvac switches, wiring to blower motor and couldn't come up with any obvious diag signs.

Can someone give me a list of what else to check?

No, but you can download a 93 service manual. If you are going to work on your own car, you're gonna need to learn to deal with everything.
