I just looked at the wire schematic for a 67/68 model, and it does not show the blower fan OR a switch. However, it does show a FUSE FOR the heater. SO, I am going to say that the wire would come directly from the fuse block to your switch.

I have a 68 and I found out the other day that the heater controls are slightly different than a 67. SO, if you don't hear more about how they "hook up" then I will at least tell you how my 68 works.

I can confirm that on my 67 the blower switch comes directly from the fuse box. I cannot remember the size of the fuse, I will have to check. The following text comes directly from my 1967 operators manual:

To heat the cab, pull knob H all the way out and when the engine begins to warm up, pull out the right hand V knob, and pull knob B all the way to the hi-speed position (low speed position is half way out; off is all the way in). Door on face of heater should be closed. When cab is warm, adjust knob B to regulate the blower speed. Adjust knob H for proper temperture.

To eliminate frost from outside of windshield, proceed as described above and pull out knob D.
To defog inside of windshield, pull knobs D, B and the right hand V knob.

For summer fresh air ventilation, push knob H all the way in and pull the left and right hand V knobs and open the summer vent door on the face of the heater case. Then pull knob B to force fresh air into cab. For ram-air effect, close the vent door and push knob B all the way in.
