start looking into your blower motor, check the fuses and simple stuff first though.

Okay, this is gonna save you alot of time. First, take off the panel that surrounds your cd player, heater controls, and all that. should come off with two screws above the gauge cluster, and the rest is held on by some pop in like things. Next, take out the screws around your A/C controls (should be about 4 or so) and pull out on it, not too far, just enough to see behind it. Once you have it out, look at the little plastic harness's. Theres one on the back of the high/low switch and another on the right side somewhere, not postitive on the exacts. Once you find them pull them off gently and check them to see if they're melted/deformed in any way. If they are....then you have discovered your problem, if not then i'm sure one of these other guys can help you out. If they are deformed/melted, then you have three options. 1. get one from the dealer (couldnt get one from mine, you might get lucky though) 2. Find one or a couple from the junkyard (i would get more than one...just in case) 3. straight wire it all (I dont recommend this, i tried it and it didnt work as well as i liked, cut on and off but of course the only wire i had was house wire....not easy to work with. also the little metal pins are hard to get sauder to stick to.)

Hope this helps
