Default no heat still after new blower motor

I just replaced the blower motor an hour ago still no heat. I get heat on defrost when im moving faster that 45 so I know its not the heater core... possible switch or resistor any ideas and how to tell what it is would be helpful thanks.

don't rule out the heater core just yet...

do a simple back flush, see how that goes.

This system must work correctly:

I would eliminate the heater control valve as it could be clogged/partially closed/and is not needed anyway.

Evidently the blower isn't working for whatever reason. Fuse, Switch, Bad ground

The control of the vents is managed by the vacuum system.
Check you vacuum lines to make sure you don't have any leaks.
That was my problem.
