No heat in my 5000TQ

This is what I can figure out from the schematic.
The A/C blower motor is controlled in two ways:
1. control by the A/C Blower Control Unit
I think this is the auto blower speed adjuster. If you dont manually select
Lo or Hi blower speeds on the A/C control head, then the A/C control head
will control blower speeds thru this A/C Blower Control Unit.

2. manual control via the A/C control head Lo/Hi speed buttons.


The blower motor is electrically connected like this:
Pin2 > BR wire to ground
Pin2 > BR wire to A/C Blower Control Unit pin C

Pin1 > BK/Y wire to A/C Control Head pin 14
Pin1 > BK/Y wire to A/C Blower Control Unit pin A

Make sure you first test out using the A/C Climate Control Lo/Hi buttons
(bypassing the A/C Blower Control Unit).
I think its bypassed.
Put the A/C control head in economy mode, otherwise nothing will work.

In normal operation, with lo/hi buttons not selected, the A/C control head,
via the A/C Blower Control Unit, will not turn on the blower motor until the
engine coolant temp comes up. Pressing the Lo/Hi button will bypass this
mode and turn on the fan.

> After replacing the HVAC controller (thanks to Chris at
www.Force5auto.com), I can hear the programmer working properly.  The blower
motor still doesn't work.  I have connected it up directly to an adjustable
power supply and it works fine (so the brushes are ok).  I checked the fuse
and it is good.  I suspect a bad ground or some other broken wire since the
HVAC controller diagnostic code for the voltage across the blower indicates
'0' volts.

could tell me what the wiring looks like going from the controller to the
blower.
