You have a Manual Climate Control and you need to check the 2 fuses, the power stage/resistor, and the blower for correct operation.

Pressing on the brakes and having the fan increase speed could indicate a bearing/brush problem with the fan motor. You could turn on the fan, lift the cowl in the engine compartment and pull out the dirty filter (replace with new), and reach down and give the blower a nudge with your fingers. If it starts to run, replace the blower. If not, the power stage is probably your problem ($85 at FCPGroton).
