Apologizes, asking for a friend. I'm told the A/C and heater only blow on level 3. Shuts off on other settings. Not sure if that is high or medium or what. 2015 Chevrolet Adventure van. No clue if I should look at controls, blower or what. She is concerned about being ripped off. Just looking for a direction to start with. FYI miles not known. Had to put something. It's a lot. Thanks

Welcome to 2CarPros.

Based on your description, the blower motor resister has failed. When bad, they only will work in the high mode. Please note that the information below is for a 2005. In your post, you indicate a 2015, but in the heading a 2005. They weren't offered in 2015, so I'm assuming it is the 2005.

Here are the directions for replacing the resister. The attached pictures correlate with these directions.
