That is not enough information but I try to help you as far as possible.
First of all you always have to indicate the model and engine type and month and year built. You say 1990. So it should be a E32. Engine? 735, manual or automatic? In case of automatic transmission it would be a 735iA.
In case you have the long version, it would be a 735iAL, or a 740iA, or a 750.....
All these data you find on myu website under VIN decoder.
Then download there the onwers manual, that will help you too.
And when you ask something, a better more specific description in the subject line helps a lot.
All people need help when they start a thread.
Does air come out? If not, replace the microfilter. But as I do not have your exact month and year of production (1990 can also mean 10/1989 production), I am not sure if you have a microfilter at all.

That means, include in your signature there the exact model, engine, and month and year of production, that is needed to help you in detail.
Read thru this

microfilter change is shown there.
It could be that the blower motor has bad bearings, but that can also have smaller problems, such as leaves inside the housing.
Go again to my website below and click the site of GALE, he has a write up to replace the carbon brushes on the blower motor, so you can see how you can get to it.
There are a lot of things one can find in the filter and blower motor

Buy yourselves a Bentley Repair Manual for the E32, a must for the DIYer.
There are sometimes disocunt offers online or used ones.
Welcome to the world of the E32.
Please also read on my website under 'before buying' what to check, that is good for a good check of the car you own now.
