Fuse, blown bulb (unlikely since both aer out) or sh*tty wiring

Its when your air con display starts doing this you should get really worried!!

Seriously though, my heater matrix (is it called something else maybe in the south hemisphere?) went in my last car and all it would blow out was cold air. Got the whole thing replaced and back to normal then.
