    Hey all,

    Basically my fan blower hardly works, it will kick in and out, but even when it does I have no a/c or heat. I'm almost positive its a wiring issue. I don't want to take it in to get worked on because I'm sure it would be a lot of money, which I don't have right now. So I was thinking, do any of you have any ideas for an alternate heat source, or even helpful things I can do to help me survive this winter safely? I think I could deal with being cold, but my windows getting frosted or fogging up and not have a defrost is really a concern for me. So any input you have would be great, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you!

    fix the blower, anything else you would buy would cost as much as a blower motor or some parts, and those plug in heaters suck.

    Flush your heater core or fix the blend door. Then replace the resistor or switch for the blower.

    Lock a fat ***** up in there and bring her food/water 3 times a day. That should keep it pretty warm and moist in there. Problem solved.

    actually i tried one of those plug in heaters at work. was pretty good. also you could always buy a power inverter and buy a small room heater. but then youd be better off just fixing it. or if your supercharged just drive like a bat outta hell thatll warm the inside pretty good...lol those things make a ton of heat
