Could be. My manual is only good up till 96. So far it's been fairly
reliable. Only the automatic climate control had a relay.
Wait a sec.. A brain cell way back in the dusty corner of my pointy head
just thought of something. I remember a discussion about a relay being
located behind (or possibly on) the climate control pannel. Can't for
sure say which model or even if it was for a Jeep. That doesn't fit with
my schematics, but who knows what they may have changed.

Re: 97 GC - Mechanic Cant find Blower Relay
I have the alldatadiy for the vehicle and the diagram shows it
attached to the outside of blower unit under the dash.
( roughly beside a wiring plug with a harness )
The dealers guys are using the shop manuals, so, on
the surface , it appears that the harness has been routed
incorrectly at some point.
I did look at the blower unit before i took it in and recall
only seeing a single harness to the blower, there was no
other harness. I hadnt looked up the relay info then, i was
checking out the blowers location.
It will be interesting to find out what the story is.
