dumb question, the heater and ac both use the same blower to push air into the car right? just sends it to different paths right? How do i check this electric motor on it, besides hooking it to the battery to see if it turns? I noticed my ac and heatwere not blowing very hard, about a week ago, now it doesn't blow at all, and that "blows".

Both the head and the ac use the same blower. Your blower is probably toast. Give it a whack with your fist. If it comes on your brushes in your motor are toast.

Did what you said and it did come on, so do i need to replace the whole motor, or is there a kit to replace the brushes?

Usually you just replace the entire motor. You can try to rebuild it but ive never heard of a kit to do that.
