I was told by Chevy garage that I needed a new blower motor…replaced didn’t work…then resistor replaced…still doesn’t work…after 300.00+ wondered if there were any other ideas out there! Thanks

Start by replacing the garage with one that diagnoses failures rather than just throwing parts at them. Then don’t be surprized if they tell you the blower relay needs changing.
