No air running through vents on 95.5 Taco

Hey guys,

Today I was driving my 1995 Tacoma (4 cylinder, 2.7L) with the heat on high and (very) suddenly air stopped coming through the vents. Perplexed and a little cold I pulled over and opened up the hood, nothing looked out of the ordinary (but lets not kid ourselves, I'm not going to win Mechanic of the year anytime soon). I drove home and the only thing I could think to check was the coolant level (which is doing great) and the fuses (again I opened up the hood and checked my little fuse box, all the fuses that looked like they went with the heater, I checked, and are currently in operational condition). Cringing, I thought about how much money I don't have to bring my poor little truck to a mechanic. So I turned to the internet, which has greatly befuddled me. So hopefully one of you might have seen something similar or have a starting place for me.

Thanks in advance.

-Paul

Do you own and know how to use a volt/ohm. Multimeter?

If not you have no good way to test the electrical circuit.

If so then we can help you.

Did the blower motor quit or the air started coming out on the floor.??

This is the important question

Make sure the blower wires are connected, they are on the bottom of the blower (under/behind the glove box) kinda vulnerable, to long legged passengers.
If they are unplugged, make damn sure they are reconnected to the right terminals, I chased the devil on mine, finally found the blower was running in reverse!
