A/C Electrical Help????

I need some electrical help for my A/C. It was running fine and just stopped while fan was on high.
Here's what I have done: ( I am basically an electrical idiot and must have worked for Lucas in a previous life)
Fuse- first thing checked.
Relay switched with known good relay
Fan Blower switch swapped for known good switch. Bentley pretty much points here
Verified voltage to fuse block
Verified continuity in resistors in footwell
No blower motor function still and I do not believe the clutch is engaging.

Still no go. So:
How do I jump the blower motor to verify it is functional or meter check it?
How do I verify there is power to the switch - which terminals do I check? I assume that if the switch has power the problem is between the switch and blower

And where else and how else to check the system? Bentley is not exactly definitive for troubleshooting the system electrically.

Like to have it functional before IMSA at Road America in 2 weeks and just be able to drive it comfortably.
