Ford explorer heater/ac fan blowing fuses?

[gbodyfever]

Ok people i need your help, i kno this isent gbody related but you guys are great with help so i come to you,
i got a 1993 ford explorer, and yesterday the heater fan stoped working, check it over sure enough yes it was the fuse, so today i changed it and after not even a minuete the fuse blew again and i can see this being a pattern..
why is it doing this, im assuming a short or bad ground? but where the hell do i even look to fix this? im horrible with wiring and dont have a clue.
need this fixed asap as its rainy weather here and need the defront on.
thanks for any input

look at the fan motor it's probably bad.

probably the motor but try this; unplug the motor replace the fuse and turn on the car. run the fan switch thu all it's positions and run the HVAC panel through all positions. check the fuses while you do this. if it blows it's a wiring short somewhere 😢 if it doesn't blow do the motor.

ok thanks guys ill go to the junkers and get a new fan for it, on a side note, is it possible that a little offroading on a muddy/puddle filled trail can finally just pooch the motor or would it have to been water got in or what? its been raining here for a week straight off and on, and calling for more all week =( , can tsee that being why tho.

ok so got a new blower fan, and put it all back in and the fuse still keeps blowing so,
cross out the idea of a bad motor, now its a short somwhere or something?
where do i even begin to look ? i have no idea on wiring
