Climate control not working

I already checked those things and had the codes scanned, but will check again. Your wiring diagram is more detailed, thanks!

Wondering if perhaps the axillary blower motor control is bad? Unfamiliar with this as it's different than a normal resistor array? Not really sure if I tested its function properly.

What seems odd is that at one point the fan would only blow on high and not shut off, then I unplugged the control module and replugged it in to 'learn' again, and now the fan only blows super slow and again will not turn off with the ignition.

Perhaps at this point I'd be better off investing in the 'real' repair manual for the car. Probably save its cost in pinpointing the problem since the dealership doesn't seem to offer anything more than a 'guess and throw more parts at it' approach. I really don't think they have a clue.

I've found Mitchel to be very good on the details necessary for the difficult stuff. Usually I can access them at the public library, but they aren't keeping up to date with them in these days of budget woes.

I guess on-line access would be less expensive than the book form, and just as useful if you can print the files you need. Thank you

UPDATE. For those experiencing a similar problem. Solution to my problem was replacing climate control head, electronic fan control, and the fan. Heart of the problem was failure of the electronic fan control. This part is located under passenger dash near the fan and functions similar to a resistor network but it varies voltages to fan based on temps it senses. Its failure caused excessive voltages which took out the control head. I also replaced the fan as it is often damaged as well by this parts failure. Even though the fan still runs, it can cause a problem by continuing to draw excessive current. Works A-1 now. If you experience a similar problem I recommend checking the electronic fan control first. Not sure how to test one really since it's a sophisticated function, but it is the most likely culprit if you're having troubles. Thanks to all!

2004 Chevrolet Malibu LS HVAC Issue
Problem: Climate control unit faulty.
Symptoms: Blower fan works at all speeds but a/c button will not turn on and the air only blows through the vents. No defrost or feet. Air temperature is outside air.
Fix: Pull the side panel on the passenger seat side at the center console by your ankle. It's held on by velcro. Under the panel you will see a fuse block look on the far upper far right corner and the 2nd fuse down is a small red 10 amp fuse. Pull it out with the supplied the supplied tweezers (tan ones found under the same panel) and replace it. That's what I did and it worked for me.
