    I replaced the resistor for my blower motor and the plug for the blower motor. The plug had gotten hot, so I replaced it. Now it’s doing it again. The blower will start if I giggle the wires, but woo stop randomly.

    If it works when you wiggle the wires you have a bad connection either where you spliced it or on one of the connectors.

    If the connector(s) at the resistor and motor are still good it may be the motor itself, like bad brushes. Sometimes you can disassemble the motor and clean them, or it may need to be replaced

    Since you have replaced the resistor nd connector (four wire connector). Check the two wire connector on the motor it may also be burned and loose.
