After research I found someone on another forum that had the same problem I do.
I have two problems for those of you that have been following.
1. The air doesn't come out of the dash very hard.
To fix this problem I bought a gen 1 motor from GMAN (thanks bud) to try a new fan. But, that wasn't the problem. Though I will not that the motor is the same as a gen 2 while the fan itself is different (and replaceable if you have your gen 2 fan).
I do think I found the problem though. About a year ago I bought a new power wire (orange and black) for the fan because it wouldn't come on. I bought it from the dealer and it turns out that the new wire reverses the polarity. There is an arrow on the fan showing it's direction and the cable from the factory turns the fan in the opposite direction. So I'll put the motor back in with the polarity fixed and see if I get a fix. (I also put my hand up as far as I could into the ducting to try to find any blockage but didn't find any.)
2. The motor runs all the time. When I bought a new HVAC from laser it fixed the problem for a day but then (without any rain) within 2 days the problem came back.
Doing some research I found that a person having the same problem (after checking for vent cracking and water intrusion) took their mark to the dealer and the dealer said it was the Reciculating Vent motor. Replaced it for 500$ (after pulling the dash) and it fixed the problem.
Anyone know where this motor is? Or 'controller'? ( I would imagine this is a controller not a motor.)
Just FYI I have 3 different motor controllers (the one by the fan motor and my problem happens with all three of them I don't think this is it.)

you have some $$ invested on that Mark now.
