I have a new problem. The blower just stopped working. I checked the fuses but all seems good. Any ideas on what to check next?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Are the headlights and other electrical accessories working? If not, jiggle the ignition switch.

If they are, probably either the blower itself has failed or the blower resistor back. Both are located behind the glove compartment liner. You can try jumping the blower with 12V to see if it will work.

I have a blower motor if you need it. If it doesn't work in any setting it's likely the motor. Usually if the motor is good it will work in one of the speeds.
