99% its the relay. My buddy had the same issue with his at strangely near the same miles. You can ohm a relay out with a volt meter.

Best thing to do is ohm them out. Grab a volt meter and pull em out and go to town

idk if its coincidence or not but my door locks arent working anymore.. the remote unlock/lock nor when you put the key in the door do they all unlock when you turn it twice

i also check all the fuses in the engine bay and interior all seem good

Check the main fusible link for your car. I had the same issues I blew mine somehow and my door locks, mirrors and trunk didn't work. I found the problem to be this. This main link dose control the a/c too thing is mine still dose not work

Ok, here's a diagram of the area you need to be looking at. As you can see, the relay for the blower system is actually integrated into the car's ETACS ECU, so you're unable to test it like a normal relay. You're going to have to check for power and ground at the individual connectors and narrow down which part of your system is actually at fault.
