My 92 240sx decided it did not want to blow air for the ac or the heat any more. This happened this summer and it was a mild summer so i toughed it out. Now however in Missouri this time of year i desperately need my defrost. So I checked the fuse's and they look good are there relays? And after this i replaced the whole climate control unit and still have had no luck any ideas? Could the blower motor be dead?Oh and btw the only search results were "baller digital climate controle" Any input or ideas would be awsome!

It could be the blower motor resistor. Its under the dash on passenger side, it looks like this.... The same thing happened to me in my s14.

Take a voltmeter or a test light, connect one lead to positive and the other to the ground side.If your getting battery voltage then your motor is dead.

so got a wild hair decided to check things out no power at all to fuse block for top left 15A fuses for blower motor. Also no power at blower fan plug. Checked all under hood relays and fuses that said any thing fan related. I have not found any bad ones. Any ideas of were to check for a short?
