My blower will only come on sometimes and it will only stay on for anywhere of a couple minutes to an hour or it won't come on at all. What can I do to relieve this problem? Because it is winter and I would like to have heat all the time.

I understand what you're saying. Chances are the blower motor relay or resister is bad. However, to be sure, you need to check to see if the motor is getting power. If it isn't, then it's the resister or the relay. If there is power, then I would recommend checking for a bad ground. If the ground is good and you have power, then the motor is going bad.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Keep warm!
