My heater went out on my car. It stopped blowing out the heat. Before it went out it only worked on the last two settings, which was high and the next below high. My back windows deforst this mornig. It just seems to be the heat just stopped blowing out. What could this be?

Hi:
If it's the blower motor that isn't working, you need to check if you are getting power to the motor. If you are, chances are the motor is bad; however, the problem with the speeds you had tells me it may be the blower motor resister.

Check for power, and let me know what you find.
