New development: I went ahead and took off the glove box to have a look at the fan. Just out of curiosity I took out the filter, turned the car on, and turned the fan switch on. Nothing happened, but then I gently poked the fan blade and the fan spun right up. I'm starting to think maybe the fan motor is dirty or wearing out? Any ideas? Thanks for all the help so far!

OK - So fuse is definitely good.

The fan assembly can be removed without taking off the dash. There are just three screws that hold it to the bottom of the airbox. You could try lubricating the motor.
