I will go try that now. I do believe I got the blower fan to turn on when I was troubleshooting it back in October. Don't recall how, but I bet it was the 2 blue wires. Where is the sail switch located? I know what a sail switch is, but I've never noticed one.

I looked at the thermostat and I still had it set to call for heat. After waiting to see if the heat would come on (it didn't), I clicked the thermostat off and the next day, I could not recreate the fan coming on.
