Angry yet another heater issue

i have been trying to get my heat working for 3 months now. i bought 2 used logicons and neither one worked so i took them apart and resolderd all the solder points on both and they still dont work.the lights work and nothing else,no fan not even a sound when i push the buttons. i check fuses and tested the fan. what else could it posibly be? im gettin so pissed at this thing. it seems to me as if its not getting any power to the logicon. what shoul i do? does anyone have a wire diagram?

well i just looked at the diagram and its not going to be the logicon cause that also controls the lights(plus you also replaced it).it could be the blower unit,the rec.-fresh select motor or possibly the fan amp.just start testing power and ground on those.


if something is getting power but no power is leaving its going to be the unit**so you cant just test power going in you need to test it coming out also**

ya i think your right about the fresh select...just back track (following the diagram)from where you had no power at the motor. backtrack untill you find power
