| Description of the problem | No heat or air, at first i could bump the dash and it would come on, but now nothing. Purchased a new blower motor but still doesn't work. So has to be bad wires,because nothing has power to it. I have no way to defrost/unfog windshield and had to stop in the middle of the road because i could not see anything. |
