Bypass the resistor and connect 12v directly to the blower - if it spins up its a duff resistor, if not its probably the motor ;)

If it isn't working on four then 99% sure its the motor, quite a common problem but it is a Fiat after all.

Wait until the heater cables over run and muck the heater flaps up. Thats a complete new heater box and the whole dash, crash bar, coloum have the be removed which is around two days solid work
