The fan for my heat/air
either the switch or the fan, they are both at least 18 years old and 8 years beyond their expected life.
get a NEW fan, they are all pretty much the same, on eBay or a parts store. sits right above the passenger's feet in an upside down attitude. 3 or 4 screws lower it after disconnecting the wiring. gently stick a running vacuum hose up in the hole and swish it around a few times before putting the new one in. if that did not do it the switch is next. if it is the switch generally you will note some slow deterioration in its function over time. generally the fan as it is an electric motor.
