Have you tested the blower motor?

Since it is on the engine side of the firewall, connect two leads from the battery and see if it spins at full speed.

I don't know if these diagrams will help with your '96 blower circuit troubleshooting. They're from a '93 and '94 FSM's. I don't have '96 diagrams. In '97 there was a big change so I didn't bother posting that.

Note that switch symbol in the middle of the blower motor fuse block is a thermal fuse.
