    Half the time when I cut my truck on the AC/Heat won’t blow any air at all. But I noticed if I hit a bump or if I drop the hood down it will knock it back on sometimes. Any ideas on what this issue would be?

    Brushes in blower fan motor could be going bad, smack it with your hand next time. By smacking it you shake the brushes into making better contact, so the fan works for a while

    The fan speed resistor is also a common issue, with burned pins at the connector. But usually those don't start working again when smacked

    Get under the dash and check the resistor pins for melting

    Edit: haha Nav and Dm type faster than me
