mmm...I asssumed it was an electrical problem because my car has been a little finicky lately in that area, but it certainly could be the blower motor too. That's a good idea, I'll have to check it out.
As far as the symptoms...I tried to turn on the A/C and got no response, defrost, etc. nothing works, just no function whatsoever from the whole system. I javen't had a chance to look into it more deeply. Thanks for the responses.
