My blower for my heater and AC stopped working. I have heat, which seems to come out more the faster I am driving. At first I noticed that after a while the blower would start working, but now it just doesn't work at all. I did see something online about some sort of mesh screen in the dash that gets clogged with road dirt. Do you have any ideas on what the problem is, or what I can do to fix this? I'd appreciate any input. Thanks.

i would bet your blower motor is no good and you need to replace it. with the heat on high try tapping the motor and see if it comes on.

Thanks so much! After tapping on the motor it did come on, but with a nasty noise, then it shut off again. I'm in the process of getting a new motor put in. Thanks again for your help! :wink:
