Meh. Got stuck up to the rear axle in sand yesterday. I didn't hot dog it -- tried for about thirty seconds to get out and then got somebody to yank me out with a tow strap.
My AC blower motor is no longer working. I do not understand how getting stuck equals a dead blower motor unless it sucked dirt. Both front tires were on pavement. I dunno.
Checked all the fuses, etc. They all look good. Is there anything really obvious that I could do before taking it to the shop? It's out of the factory warranty and the extended warranty has a $100 deductible, so if there's anything stupid and simple please tell me. And am I right in thinking the blower motor itself, if it fried, is in an inacessible location behind the dash and is probably not a home-repair job for someone with serious back trouble? I haven't yet gotten a chilton's for this truck.
(It's forecast to be 112 today, and plus 110+ the rest of the week. AC is kindof critical when you have a 50 mile commute one way in those temps.)
