I recently purchased an a/c control switch to replace the circuit board i thought burned out but after replacing any parts that I thought may have been bad, there is very little to no air blowing through the vents. What do I need to look for to repair this problem?

well check the for any bad vacuum hoses going into the firewall near the heater core area, are you talking about air volume or just no hot air

lack of air pressure ... actually none. I replace the electrical components that were bad behind the left and right switches and i have no airflow. Could there be some type of reset that I am missing or is it my blower or ??? Help me please!

if the fan does not come on then the fan resistor is faulty and need replacement
