Here you can see the blower assembly taken out of the furnace. Ever since Ed has had their trailer, it hasn't worked. We discovered that a fuse was missing, so I found a cap and a fuse to put in its place. This didn't solve the problem. It turns out that when (whoever) took the fuse out, they lost a spring which makes contact between the fuse and the wire. Without the spring, the fuse can't make contact and the circuit is broken. Further inspection revealed that the blower itself had loosened itself off the motor's shaft, probably causing a terrible noise when it was on, which was probably why (whoever) took the fuse out in the first place. I found an Allan Key to fit the blower's tightening screw, and that was that. Not having a spring for the fuse, I simply soldered a piece of wire into the bottom of the fuse holder, solving that problem as well.
