Re: wheres the blower motor relay located on a 1998 olds...
The blower motor relay(resistor block) is under the hood on the passenger side on the firewall. but this is not your problem with these symptoms, you need to take the car to a garage and have it checked out and repaired.

I think under the hood in a fuse box.I would check the blower motor resistors connection afterwards.Turn ignition and fan switches on then wiggle the pigtail going to the resistor.Its located in the heat duct on the passenger side near the floor.These resistors are known for getting hot and melting the pigtail causing it to loose connection.
The blower motor is under the dash on the passenger side. You'll need to remove the plastic hush cover to get to it. These trucks are prone to this.
The blower motor fails because the resistor/ relay / wiring harness assembly overheats and can melt. Some of these have even caught fire. You're going to want to replace the blower motor resistor/relay and wiring harness assembly assembly too.
Check out all the wiring that goes into the resistor for heat damage. This assembly sits right next to the blower motor right above where the passengers feet would be. The resistor/relay is about the size of a pack of cigarettes and you'll see it right away. Make sure to disconnect the battery before working on any of this so you don't cause any more trouble while splicing in the new harness. I just did this on my 2006 Chevy truck and my blower motor was ok. I just had to replace the resistor/relay and splice in a new wiring harness. It cost $180.00 just for that stuff.
check fuses if they are still good change the blower motor instructions below not hard to do!
Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Disconnect the blower motor lead connector from the wiring harness connector.
Remove the blower motor cooling tube from the blower motor.
Remove the four retaining screws.
Turn the motor and the wheel assembly slightly to the right so that the bottom edge of the mounting plate follows the contour of the wheel well splash panel.
Lift up on the blower and remove it from the blower housing.
Installation the new blower motor by reversing the removal steps.
blower motor location is in the heater box down by the passengers feet the fan relay in out under the hood in the power fuse box check this first
check to see if the blower motor turns you can do this by removing the three screws the motor and squiral cage will come out spin it if it moves freely putit back replace the switch assembly
Blower/Heater Switch Operation:
This electrical switch, located in a fuse or breaker protected circuit, controls the rpm of the blower motor through a series of control relays and a rheostat. Sometimes the A/C compressor clutch is energized by this switch.
