Default no blower motor!

So my blower motor didn't work on hi, that was livable. Today it was working fine. Then later in the day I turned on the ac and I got nothing. The compressor kicked on and cold air trickled out but nothing from the blower motor. Also I realized my passenger floor was soaked and it hasn't rained in weeks. So it must be draining into the cab... how do I fix both of these issues?

Thanks.

So I had a new resistor to fix my no high problem, put it in and now I have the lower three speeds back, still no high though. Also, where is the drain for the a/c? I think its clogged up and thats why I'm getting water on the floor, so I just need to clean it out.

Your switch in the dash control may have gone bad. The switch is unobtanium in the aftermarket, only available from Dodge or a wrecking yard. Maybe EBay--but that will be expensive. When mine went bad, all the smoke leaked out as well, I got a couple from the local pick ur self style yard. All better now.

Does the wetness smell like coolant? Check to see that the drain is still draining and hope it doesn't smell like prestone.

It may be the switch causing high not to work, but I do know I need to get a new resistor pigtail. And the water is water for sure. I saw it on my rubber floor mat, clear water. Where is the drain located on these trucks?
