My fan to blow heat into the car has 3 or 4 speeds, and only the fastest speed works, the other ones dont blow at all. I have tried moving the selector to all the other spots like air conditioning, floor, defrost, etc... and still only the highest fan setting will work. Finally I tried punching the selector and that only made it move harder than before (dont ask - seemed like the right thing to do at the time.)
Any ideas?

Sounds like a switching issue. They use resistors in the speed control maybe it has burnt out?

its the switch, heater control switches (as bobby said) work on resistence.

So by switch, Is it one of those switches that only an electricion could identify burried in my dash somewhere? Or do you mean the switch that selects the speed of the fan?

the switch you play with on your dash to select the fan speed

yeah, not the switch itself, the resistor pack went bad. all the speeds work thru a resistor, except hi, which is a straight shot to the motor. not an expensive fix.

yeah again, you go to a store and ask for a blower motor resistor
then all ur heat will work on any setting you please. and then something else will break, cause its a jeep
