Blower Motor Problem

My blower motor for my air conditioner doesn't work in my 1988 IROC. I checked the fuse panel and all the fuses are fine. When I start the engine and turn on the A/C, the A/C compressor clutch engages but no air comes through the vents due to a dead fan. The connections on the blower motor are conected and no wiring harnesses appear damaged.

I checked out both Chilton's and Haynes shop manuals and looked at the electrical wiring schematics. The Chilton's shop manual indicates that there is a blower motor relay. Where is this relay? I can't seem to find it. I do know where the fan, fuel pump, and MAF burn off relays are.

What else could be the cause of my blower motor not working?

Jump 12+ volts from the battery to the purple wire on the fan to make sure the fan motor isn't smoked 1st.

Thanks for the advice. The blower motor is working fine again. I guess my IROC didn't feel like being tested so it started working fine again.
