Have it checked for trouble codes. You will then know what to diagnose. Check coolant level as well, look at the recovery tank to see if your level is up. ANOTHER THOUGHT Also, when you check the trouble codes, if nothing shows up you might want to put a volt meter on the battery. If the alternator can't keep up with the power that the blower is using you MIGHT be dropping below what the computer wants to see. Use a volt meter and check if the voltage drops below 13.5 VDC when the heater is turned on. You'll need to give the engine a little throttle, bring it up to around 1500 to 2000 RPM when you check the voltage level. If it's not maintaining voltage, it's probably the alternator. Have it checked by a reputable auto parts retailer such as Checker or Auto Zone.
