Subject:no fan, big fan, fuse blow, no fan - bare wire??

Hi Kim,

I recently had something similar happen and discovered that one of the
fan leads had been dragging slightly on the fan blades, worn through the
insulation and shorted out.  It could, also, be nothing more than a fuse
which fatigued due to repeated heat cycles and finally died.
Personally, I'd replace the fuse first, then pull the spare tire and
inspect the wires into the fan motor.
