Hi there it sounds as if your blower motor resistor is internally shorted, attached is a link on how to pull it out and replace the resistor. Just ignore them soldering in a fuse this is for a other more common issue what that car has of no blower at all, but the new part runs around 80 dollars, and will take about 1 hour to change, Thanks
