No air of any kind!!?

So the last time i drove my car was friday, all the air and temp dial a/c everything worked as it should, then i just drove it tonight and i have no air coming out at all, checked the fuse and it fine. There is a very small amount of warm air coming from just engine temp i would assume. Where should i look next? any help would be great, maybe the blower motor is dead, but i hope thats not the case. Help!

The blower motor fuse is not in the fuse box. It is separate if you didn't know this already.

thanks for the reply, i checked that to. It has a crack in it around the screw holding it. I'm really hoping replacing it tomorrow will be a fix. We'll see what happens.

I'm sure it is, your symptoms are identical to what I had.

Please keep us updated as I have had the same symptom on mine for years now. Just don't drive it enough to justify doing anything about it.

So 1000 dollars later fixed the problem got into a position where it was a must no way around to fix so i went for it, the blower motor seized causing the final stage unit, the blower motor regulator to basically overload and fry. It turns out the regulator is pretty damn expensive. On the bright side i have heat/ac/climate control again. But now i have an oil leak, problems never end!

Wow, $1000! I'm glad we live in Southern California, we'll just continue to either roll our windows down in the summer or keep them up in the winters.

Glad it worked out for your though...
