> Sounds like "magic blower syndrome". Failure of fan control resistor pack. When it overheats a bimetallic strip bypasses resistors and runs fan at full speed to cool them.
>
> I've never had to service mine, but others have repaired by replacing pack, or bending the bimetallic strip so it doesn't make contact to apply full power till temp rises more. It is accessed by pulling off duct between blower motor and evaporator, under the thin plastic cowl at rear of engine bay.
