Hi
The Blower motor diode aka Blower motor resistor or blower module, is located on passanger side, between the blower motor and firewall.
It is by no means an easy item to replace. The have 3 screws holding onto case. 2 are fairly easy the last one is located against the firewall and is very hard to get out and put back.
Does your car have a sunroof?
If so it could be sunroof drains plugged up.
I hope this helps.
Just advise from experience
Good Luck
