i'm not sure why i don't have heat. None of the switches work, and it sometimes tries to blow something out but nothing seems to happen.. I was wondering if you would possibly know what it would be and how much?

start by checking all of the fuses, and if they are ok check the relays.also with the key on and the blower speed switch on high try tapping on the heater box below the glove compartment gently with a rubber mallet or equivalent and see what happens.
