A bit more info needed.

1) Is the blower working?

2) Is the engine getting to operating temp?

3) Are the ventialtion direction controls working with the blow air moving from screen, to face, to foot well in response to the controls

Ok

First things to check

A) Is the scuttle empty of water (rear right of the engine bay)
B) Is fuse 33 ok?

Ok, so the chances are we are looking at a fan failure.

Next stage is to remove the glove box and start measuring voltages on the fan terminals.

I assume the fan never works, not even on full speed.

No The fan does not work at all, it was working yesterday but i heard like a electric zap/click when driving.

How hard is it to remove the glovebox? I guess i need to get a multi meter?
