Fan / AC / Heater just STOPPED working...
The fan / AC / Heater was working fine this morning and when I got in the car this afternoon it wasn't blowing air. The climate control is on and appears to be working fine, the rear fan works, and I can hear the mechanism in the dash opening and closing when I change functions. I checked the fuse and that doesn't appear to be blown. Any ideas on what else it could be?

Sounds like a blower motor reisistor. Very common faliure and it can cause it not to blow air. Has your battery dided recently. You can get them on ebay for about 70 dollars and install it yourself. Very easy just plug and play. Also check you fuses.
