My car not blowing air. Nada is coming out. I think my motor is dead.

Guys, i've lately encoutered this problem of my air blowling sometimes and sometimes not. Anyways, now it's not coming out at all. Price for the Motor is $270-$350. Since air is not coming out, what else could it be? I need serious help.

that topic comes up every now and then...if the lights of the control unit dim or go off when the air stream stops, it is the control unit.
do you have the feeling as if something is still working or better said trying to? that sound showed up when i had that same problem. i had to replace the unit as well.

If it's a blower motor that's dead - pick this one up for under 100$ on Ebay:

17 hours left as of now. However, it's not a small DIY job to replace this one....

the control unit is ok. The reason i said that i because my window defroster in the back still works, the dim light is fine and the close and open ventlation is ok. Also, i have the Knob control ones not the automatic ones. However, i woke up this moring to a 12 degrees weather and the blower was working fine. I just took the car to the shop for the themostart to be changed and also get the blower looked at. Themostart change is $24 for the Themostart and about $70 labor. They called me a few mins ago to tell me the motor blower is bad. Cost for a remanufactured one is $190. And the labor is again $70 to put it in. I told him to just change the Themostart and i'll worry about the blower when i get the money. I think i'll buy the one on ebay and then do it my self when it gets warm outside.
