So, yesterday my A/C just cut off. It wouldn't blow on heat or A/C, I did a google and found a video on replacing motor blower resistor. Problem solved. Then I noticed when I drove it the lights were flashing on the lowest setting of the blower. The blower was still working but the lights flashing on the lowest setting concern me because I have a long drive to take this week and font want an issue with the A/C.

I would try another blower motor resistor in case the replacement is defective. Also, I have seen the blower motor start to go out and pull too many amps which takes out the resistor. Here is how to replace the blower motor and resistor in case you need it. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes.

Hi and thank you, I did try a second resistor and the same thing. Should I be thinking about the freon level as well? It's cold but doubt as cold as it once was?

Was the light on right after you replaced the resistor, or did it take a few days? Yes, I would check the refrigerant level, here is a video to show you how:
