Ac blows on low just fine but when I turn it up it will blow for a second then either cut back to low or wont blow at all. Usually works ok at nigh tand sometimes after the car has been running for a while.

It is an automatic system and the blower control is in the programmer. Get a shop with a scan tool to check the system for you to verify a programmer failure.

This car uses an electronic blower speed controller which, in this case is built into the blower. The programmer sends the signal to it but the blower is a much more common failure.
