The fan for my front HVAC stopped working about a week ago and it's hasn't started working since. My rear air controls work fine. When I'm drivin about 50mph I can feel air blowin through the vents only if the fan is OFF. I turn it on and the air will stop flowing. When I changed it from feet to defroster or anything like that I can hear a small clicking sound which I am assuming is the flaps that direct air flow.
Please help. the fan does not work under any circumstances.

Its the switch relay. Mine did it too and its common I guess. 30 bucks at Auto Zone?
Right next to the fan under there is 2 screws/bolts holding it up there and it has its own harness.
Did the fan only work on certain speeds before it went out? Thats a sure sign of it.

Ok. I'll look into that. But it didn't do like you said working on certain speeds but i'll check that relay for sure. Also is this relay inside the cab like on the passenger side under the dash where your feet would be?

Yeah just pop your glove box out and its right there next to the fan.
You can get it off without removing the entire shroud. 7mm for the shroud bolts. It will hang down enough to get at the resistor. Then its 5mm I think to remove the resistor. The clips on the harnesses can be a PITA but its easy to do really. Just have to contort a little bit...lol
Its actually a Blower Motor Resistor my bad!
