I haven't had trouble with any. What problems are you having, and I bet one of the guys here will help, but we need to know the symptoms before we can know the cure.

Blower fuses: I would check the wiring to the switch.  Is there an after market radio in the truck?
Controls:  Vacuum leak, or lack of.

I don't know what to tell you on the fan other than start putting a meter to it to find where the load is coming from.
As for the controls, can you tell if anything is actually moving?
