Welcome, Crystal!

Others will have more comments, but I wanted to walk you through a  
real quick check of a simple fix which *may* be your problem here -->

There is a fuse that is not in the fuse box which stopped my blower a  
couple years back.  It's not a fuse like your other fuses; it's a  
strip of metal with screws holding it at its contact points.  It is  
hidden/protected under a plastic cover (looks like a little box.)

Open the hood and stand on the driver's side by the fuse box and look  
past the fuse box.  You will note that the engine compartment has an  
interior "wall" that separates it from the space where the fuse box  
is.  On the side of that wall (the side facing you) very near the top  
is this little box with the strip of metal hidden beneath it.  I  
don't remember whether the box is attached with screws or a plastic  
tab of some kind.  It's only about two inches long (horizontally) by  
about 3/4" high (by memory.)

Remove that cover and you'll see the fuse.  If that metal strip is  
broken, you may have a very inexpensive fix.

Good luck.

Paul
