My girlfriends '00 Alero has the exact two problems.
1st, the fan controlls - rather easy fix. There is a resistor under
the dash that needs to be replaced. I don't have much more detail
on it other than that. I didn't have time to look into it, and it
was fixed by a shop. I want to say it was a ballast resistor,
but might be confusing it with an component with old 60's ignition
systems.
2nd - the rear defogger. There is a black box hidden under the
passenger rear 'sail' panel that I've been told is the culprit.
I've been meaning to look into it, but totally forgot about it
during the summer months that just passed us. I'm sure I'll get
a complaint filed within the next few weeks with the cold weather
back.
