Was definitely a Newell, probably 2000s era if I had to guess.
I could see a blower motor resistor being an issue. They are usually mounted inside the air plenum to cool them. Side note, the blower resistor is only used on the slower speeds, high speed is direct to the blower motor.

I went back through some of his videos but every video it seems he says he is waiting to hear back from the insurance company and I did not hear any thing about if they ever narrowed it down to a source.
