I’ll compare mine this evening, but I’d think it should be a little under 14V (say 13.5?) or pretty close to your alternator output voltage.
But a new motor and relay it’s at 10.4 with truck off and 11.5 off and it grounded on the frame. With truck on it’s at 12.3 vs 12.72 on frame

It’s lower not with a new relay and new motor for some weird reason. I have no idea

Pulled this just to see does it look bad to u ? And could this cause low voltage?

Resistor looks fine to me. It doesn’t come into play when on high. The control panel provides the voltage to switch the relay to power the fan directly from the fuse panel.

Mine was 14.2V engine running, blower on high. Changing ground made no difference.

Well my voltage is really low. What should I do

The duct sits/connects to the air distribution case indicated by the arrow. Once air passes through this, as directed by the damper controlled by the mode actuator, there is nothing else in the duct between that point and the dash outlets.

Just to make sure...you said that you can feel air out of the other three dash vents but not the far left vent. Correct?

If you were not getting any air out any of the four dash vents, then I'd say either the mode actuator is out of sync/isn't working or the air door itself has dislocated.

The diagram is from alldatadiy.com. Subscriptions are pretty cheap.

When you press the recirc button, it closes the fresh air intake damper and air is drawn from inside the vehicle. With the blower removed, you can see the damper behind it.
Those seals dry out and crumble to dust letting the air go anywhere it wants to.
