Default 1991 S10 blazer 4x4 heater blower problem

Hey guys i got a '91 s10 blazer 4x4... i am having a heater blower problem... i know the blower/fan works but when i go from low to high it doesn't turn on... While i am driving it will randomly turn on... It's very frustrating! What else controls the heater fan/blower to turn on? Any advice is much appreciated... if you got pics that will help me a lot as well... Thanks in advance guys!

The problem you are experiencing sounds like a worn out blower motor. Next time it doesn't work, test for power & ground to the blower motor when on the HIGH setting. If you have power and ground and the blower motor still isn't moving, it needs to be replaced.

Guess you aren't interested in diagnosing the problem...
