The resistor block for the fan inside the can for the dash vents is under the dash.

If you are talking about the AC condenser fan under the hood, if it is not blowing when you turn the AC on then I would get a meter and check for voltage at the fan. If not then check those fuses. If there is power and the fan motor isnt running then its time to replace the fan motor

Evaporator is located under the dash and I doubt you can see it through the engine compartment. Unless you are talking about the a/c lines going through the firewall.

If not then you mean the condensor like Weedahoe said. The condensor is located up front by the radiator. Does the condensor fan come on when you run the a/c ?

i was reading other posts and someone said tapping on the box under the glove compartment that has the blower more in it might help, and sure enough after i tapped on it everything started working again.. not sure what is going on.
