First port of call would be to remove the blower from the bulkhead access panel and make sure its not seized.

First port of call is to check fuse 20.
Second thing to check is if the door mirrors work.

Very good point brian, I was assuming they would have checked the fuses first.

Sorry, but why the door mirrors? And where are the fuses located?

Fuse box is stored in the engine bay. It should be fairly obvious.
