Success!!!

I got a new blower motor and "resistor"/transistor speed control from eBay. The blower cost $48.73 and the control was $81.38. This was much less than anywhere else I found.

I tested both the new and old motors with a jumper. As I suspected, the old one only ran at about half speed compared to the new one. Glad that's fixed. I need my air conditioner as the temp is in the 90s.
