Default No air coming through vents =( Hot in here!

Hey guys,

So i turn the fan control all the way to the right...nothing blows out. i click the AC switch and i do hear a click in the engine compartment, and the fan on the condenser spins ( front of car underhood--both fans spin).

when i go about 50 or 60 down the free way air does come through the vents..and if the ac button is pushed its cold air. But the blower isnt working.

can someone tell me where the fuse is for this with pictures by chance? i do not want to go go buy a blower if that is not the problem. i would like to check the fuses first, but do not know which fuse to look for.

thanks everyone.

Can you hear the blower running and nothing is coming out? Or does the blower not come on at all?

nothing at all. -- i can hear the ac click on..but no air at all is blwing through the vents. however if i am on the freeway air will come through the vents, and will be at the temperature of what is set on the temp gauge. so if i have the heat on, hot air will come through the vents, but just barely. same with ac on..cold air will come through...but it is not at the speed of the fan guage...it like barely comes through.

I haven't actually looked in my Z, but on most cars the fuses are listed out on the inside cover of the fuse box, i.e. which fuse is for which function. There should be a fuse box inside the cabin (usually near the footwell, but not sure which side) as well as the one in the engine bay.

This is what the inside cover of each fuse box should look like, roughly:

thanks for that information..just checked the fuses and replaced them to see if that was the problem. i can rule out the fuses as that is not the problem.=/

I am interesting in this as well, as I am having the same issue. I haven't been worried about it too much due to I have been in Mexico City all summer and it wasn't hot when I left. I return home tomorrow and its supposed to be 101 almost 30 degrees warmer then it is here. I am going to hate life if I can't figure it out.
