You need to unplug the blower motor. Turn ign. on and turn blower on. Take a test light and check for power on the connector. If no power is found then check fuses.If you have power then hook the test light power source and check for ground at blower connector. If you don't have ground then you may have a bad blower motor resister. If you have power and ground then the motor has gone bad.

Does it blow cold... or does it not blow at all?

If it blows cold = Thermostat.. get OEM replacement.

If not blowing at all = either the relay, or the climate control unit.. or both..

It doesnt blow at all, when it did work last year it blew really hot, then this year i dont know.

Is there a short cut where i can access the resistor and the motor by not taking the dash board out? maybe throught the glove box??

The blower motor and resistor can be accessed by removing the glovebox door. The resistor is just to the left of the blower motor.
