does it have electrical power to the blower????
try tapping on the motor itself...(fist or rubber type mallet)...sometimes when its bad it will start up or at least make a noise(growl type)..Wink
hope this helps.....

Can you tell if 12v gets to the motor with what you have with you? WallyWorld has silly test lights for $3.96, jumper wire clips with the alligator ends and you might be able to rig up power to the motor but thru a fuse please just to get home.

Also - if you do find power there just give the body of the motor a whack with like the plastic end of a screwdriver while it's supposed to be on and it may snap to. Did that with a yard vehicle for about six years as I was too cheap to replace the motorTongue

We are here and may be able to get you home with it running somehow,
