Before you do all of that pop the rheostat out and check that (located near the heater motor) as that can stop the fan working. This is normally caused by the pollen filter cavity filling with water.

If you look through the link already posted you'll see the motor is powered by 2 wires (brown is the negative), just run a fused wire to the red and see if it runs, if it does it'll be the rheostat :y
