Q: Nothing blows out of vents

asked by on April 16, 2017

My air was working fine one day, and while I was driving it suddenly stopped blowing out, the heat won't blow out either, or the front defroster. Before this happened, the highest fan speed stopped working while the other 4 speeds still worked. Could this be a relay, resistor, or blower motor

My car has an automatic transmission.
