Does the blower quit working? Such as the air quits coming out of the vents? Or does it quit blowing cold air out of the vents, and it turns to warm?
First: If the blower quits working and the vents quit blowing air entirely, I'd be skeptical of the blower motor resistor. The blower motor resistor basically redirects the flow of electricity over different coils that add or take away resistance, thus slowing down or speeding up the blower wheel - which in turn increases or decreases the amount of air coming through your vents. If the blower motor resistor goes bad, you can experience two different scenarios.
First scenario: You lose a certain speed or multiple speeds, example: high speed works (4), while low and medium speeds do not (1 and 2).
Second scenario: The blower motor will not kick on. The blower motor resistor can get too hot and actually create too much resistance, not giving the blower motor enough to speed.
Second: If the air is blowing out, but is not cold, check to make sure your compressor is kicking on. If you look at your pulleys, on the front of the motor (where the belt is), you should see one that hose three or four round nubs protruding off of it slightly. While the vehicle is running (and you're experiencing the problem), check to see if those nubs are spinning. If they aren't, then your compressor has shut off.
The Milan should have two fans in the front behind the radiator. One of those fans is for cooling down the engine, while the other fan is for cooling down the fan AND the AC Compressor. If your AC Compressor is on, one fan should be running at all times. If your compressor is running and that fan is NOT running, then it may be that the AC compressor is overheating and shutting off, thus giving you warm air. If that's the case, you can remove the fan motor and have it checked/replaced. Good luck!
