My 99 f150 pickup defrost along with air and the blower will not work but after driving for 20 to 30 minutes it all of a sudden starts.

Is the problem the blower motor? If so, have you checked to see if it is getting power?

There seems to be a very lite flow of air less than the lowest setting even when it is on high. After 20 to 45 minutes may be more it starts. I changed the resistor last year.
