My air conditioner works fine and so does the heat, however.
No other air speed works other than the max speed (I used to be able to toggle between 2/3 and trigger 3 speed) but when I switch to those speeds the car itself kind of sounds like it’s running the condition but no air until I put it on max.

Hi,

The most common cause of it only working on high is a faulty blower motor resistor. This part is located under the dash, passenger side, at the blower motor housing.

I attached the directions below specific to this vehicle for replacement. This is what I suspect is causing the problem for you.

Let me know if this helps or if you have questions.

Take care,

Joe
