I have an issue with the blower motor in a trane air handler not coming on(heatpump system) it is a trane split system. There was a pepco surge protector on the outdoor unit which I removed out of the circuit. It's been a while since I've worked on residential units and I forgot to turn the indoor unit's power off before connecting the common wire to yellow and blew the transformer which knocked out the blower from working. I replaced the transformer but blower still isn't coming on at all. By me blowing the transformer could that have killed the relay as well. I'm very lost right now as you can see, any suggestions would help.
thanks

It didn't have a fuse for the control transformer?
If it really is a Trane air handler, and it hasn't been bypassed in the past, the transformer is fuse protected in all Trane air handlers since at least the 80's. The older units used one of those 3.2A red cap control fuses, the newer ones(last 10 years or so) have one of those 5A automotive type fuses.
