The the A/C including the blower from time to time would shut off then
come back on at random. Then it hard failed. A fuse was replaced, i am
not sure wich one (not by me) but one under the hood. It worked for a
little bit then failed again. The connection to the blower was badly
melted. i replaced the connection and inspected all the fuses both under
the hood and in the car, they seemed fine. The A/C fuse looks like it
was running hot but did not blow, and i treid swaping it. I then tested
the voltage going to the blower. at the lowest seting it showed 1.5v and
the same for the next two steps. the high position shoed .5v. This does
not seem right to me but i dont know. Is this an indication the resitor
pack is fried, if so how do i get to it? If otherwise any ideas? Thanks.

FYI, the A/C and rear defroster indictor lights do not come on nor does
the A/C compressor. The heater valve does not actuate, but vacume seems
ok.

Yep..  Sounds like the resistor pack is gone.  It should be located in
the top if the case.  In the air stream.  2 screws should hold it in.

Good luck...
