Mine's doing something similar - think it's the fan speed switch (the one on the left of the dash binnacle thing), if I move it up and down eventually the heater fan starts..........might give it a shot of WD40, if that fails guess its time for a new one  :roll:

Run a direct power feed to the motor to see if it spins. If not, it's time for a new one. If it does, you know the problem is elsewhere.
