A couple problems!!! steering wheel controls and blower motor

1) when i turn the dials for turning on the ac or heat the fan doesnt turn on. All positions it stays off. It just happened all of a sudden really, before that it was working perfectly. Anyone know what could be wrong? I checked the fuses and im pretty sure they are all good.

2) My left side steering wheel controls dont work. The volume, and all the ones on the left side of the steering wheel dont work, i have an aftermarket head unit so i dont expect the volume to work, but id like the mode thing to work so i could see the mpg and dte etc. The right side (cruise control) works perfectly. Anyone know what could be wrong here?

1. check the fuses under the hood. if they are good, then either your blower resistor or the blower is shot.

2. check the electronics section.
