AC/Fan Suddenly Not Working

[DonCuniff]

Replaced fuse. Lights for all settings for functions work. Buttons work. Absolutely no signs of life AC or Fan It's over 90 ;-) Live in North Central Florida. Thoughts? Location of knowledgable mechanic in commuting distance?

Thanks!

The blower motor is under the glove box. You nee dot figure out why that is not working. Will the blower turn on if you turn on the heat? You can search threads, but I have experienced 2 reasons myself why the motor will stop working. There is a small cable assembly. The connector on that can come loose over time. Take that off and examine it for burning or damage. You can also reach under and wiggle it to see if the motor turns on and off. There is also a controller circuit board that can go bad or it can get dirty. You would have to get another controller or remove yours and examine it for damage or contamination. Contamination can be cleaned with iso propyl alcohol. Once you get the motor working you can figure out if the AC system is working.

I replaced the blower motor and controller circuit board in my 97 when i first got it. A month later the connector beerdog mentioned went out. I wound up soldering the wires together worked like a charm.
