Blower motor issues

[badgerfly]

I could use some advise here. I have a 2006 explorer, heater blower fan quit. I tested the fan motor and put a new resistor in and it worked great.....For about an Hour now it has quit again...... where do I look next????

That helped Flag Gibby. Thank you.

I am still a bit confused, I have power all the way to the Fan?? I am surprised because before I changed the resistor the fan worked..... it ran for a couple hours and now it appears the fan is bad??

I will go get a new one and see what happens

If that is the case then it sounds possible the fan motor was going bad and overdrawing current to get up to speed which would burn out the resistor or only work on 1 speed and if you use the auto funtion all the time like I do you may not even notice that you only have 1 fan speed.
