I would unplug the blower motor and inspect the terminal openings of blower motor plug.Do they look open?They should be tight and not open.

If connections look tight, also check for any corrosion or biuld up of any kind on the contact pionts.

Sounds like the blower motor itself is shot. Banging on the motor jars the contact of the brushes.
