Default heater blower wont turn off

Just as the title says, for a '02 RSX-S
I was driving around during my lunch break and I noticed the a/c was getting weak. So I lowered the temp down as low as it would go. It worked fine for a little while but then no cold air would come out. I then turned the **** for the blower off, but the blower kept going. It blows at full speed too.
No matter what I did (selecting vents, temp or blower speed) it would not shut off. I ended up having to pull the fuse to shut it off. While I was messing with it, I noticed the a/c compressor was not engaging when the a/c was on.
If anyone has any experience or knows anything about this, please help. Its hot outside.

first pull the fuse so you dont dehydrate.

i recomend you pull the climate controls and look at their wiring, check to see if theres something messed up with them. if you have a friend with a dc5 and they are willing, ask them if you could borrow their climate controls for about 5 minutes and plug it into yours. check to see if its doing the same thing, if not, you need new controls

I tried the climate control and it did the same with a known working one. I downloaded a shop manual for the car and ran a diagnostics on the climate control. It showed a code 12. Went to that section and there is so much to troubleshoot it sucks. Its way to hot to do it all. But one thing I was told by 2 machanics is that it may be the transistor for the blower. Ill mess with that soon and see what happens.

well first my lights around the fan speed switch quit, then the lights on my 5-8k rpms quit along with 0-40ish, now none of the lights for my mph works and the heater fan switch wont even make it turn on! I hot wired the fan cause its around 100 degrees here in Birmingham, and we hot wired the compressor to see if it worked at all...hot wired it blows cold as ****! Now i have ground wires that r hot and ride around HOT without lights in the dash to tell me when im speeding! I could use some info too!
