Blower motor not working!?!?!?!

I have a 2014 ford f250 and I live in western ny and its snowing like crazy and cold. I went and started the truck and went to turn on the heater to defrost the windows but nothing happened. So I started playing around and turning it on and off and everything then 5 mins later it started to work. Why is it doing this could it be electrical or the blower was frozen?

Well maybe there is a problem, but normal mode of operation for the trucks with the climate control is for the blower to run v slowly until the engine temp rises enough to provide some heat. I believe you can manually over ride this with the switch but I have not tried it recently. I would also offer the observation that these trucks are essentially 4 wheel computers and sometimes they do funny things, usually rebooting by restarting fixes most things

X2 to what jfritz said.... I notice the same behavior in my 2015... Until it warms up, the air is moving slowly.

x3 - mine does the same thing. If I switch to manual, I can make it go full blast, but in auto, it waits until there is warm air to blow.
