Hi,
For the last while when I turn on my heater fan I get a high squeally noise like a hundred mice chewing wires. Air conditioner still working fine. Now this morning I turn on the fan...nothing. Also, now the A/C won't work either. Fuse is fine I checked it. Any suggestions?

Your fan has seized. Some people have had luck by removing it and lubricating its bushings with turbine oil. If not, note which brand of motor you have (Sofica or Bosch) and get a replacement. By the way, you did knew that these cars have two different fans for heating and cooling, right? The A/C is inside below the radio, the heater one is in the firewall behind the wiper motor covers.
