I need to change the fuse for the heater and air conditioner to blow but I have no idea how to do that. Can somebody tell me how or where and which one it is?

Hi,
I would be happy to help. The fuse box under the dash of the vehicle has a blower motor fuse. If you look at the attached pic, I highlighted it to help locate it.

Now, here are a few links you may find helpful:

Here is a link that explains how to check for power using a test light. You can get one nearly anywhere. They are inexpensive.

Can you let me know if this helps? All you really need to do is remove the fuse I indicated and replace it with one having the same amperage. Do Not put a fuse in it's place that is of a higher amperage.

Let me know exactly what is happening. For example, the fan only works on high or not at all.

Take care,
Joe
