If this is the blower motor settings that have failed on low speed settings, it will probably be the fan speed resistor that has failed, I will have to go check on its location.

It will look like this, you will only see the black section screwed into the heater box.

Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Remove the glove compartment.
Remove in the order indicated in the table.
Install in the reverse order of removal.
