With the heater on high (setting 5), the fan stopped blowing heat. I then set the blower to setting 4, and the fan worked fine. As soon as I then put the fan back to 5, I would hear a click but the fan would not work at all. I then began to fiddle around with the connector that is under the passenger side dash which powers the fan. If I move the one wire around, the fan would intermittently work while on setting 5. I unplugged this connector from the blower motor, noticed that the one wire seems as if it was causing a short (the wire was somewhat black from over current). I removed the pin from the connector, recrimped and soldered it. Worked fine until a few weeks ago when the fan once again began to stop only on setting 5. I am assuming that the problem is once again the connector that goes to the blower motor powering the fan resistor. I saw a few reports of this on here about vehicle fires all of which point to this connection being bad. So I thought I would submit this as well due to the vast amount of issues I have had with this truck.

2008 Chevrolet silverado - air conditioner blows hot air out of drivers side and cold air out of passenger side. Extremely hot air blows out of the drivers side whenever the air is set on 60 (hotter than the max 90). It occurred once before but was fixed by a mechanic costing a couple hundred dollars, but now it has begun again. I am not sure if a part was fixed or replaced but the issue ceased and now has started again.
