I have a 2005 tacoma trd sport. Got in the truck a couple days ago turned on my blower knob and nothing on low med or high so probably not the resistor. I was driving down the road and decided to tap on the heater control knob a viloa the blower kicked on. Anybody know what it could be? Bad solder? Bad Switch? Thanks for any help

Bad switch, bad solder/loose wire is a good start.....

Pull the control out of the dash and look at the connectors. You might have a bad terminal in one of them.

You can take the switch apart and clean up the contacts to get it working again.
