Check the blower motor resistor. It should be close by the blower motor. Here is the repair procedure to get access with a picture:

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment and possible personal injury

 1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
 2. Remove the kick cover from the heater-A/C housing. See Kick Cover for the procedures.

. Pull out the lock on the blower motor resistor wire harness connector to unlock the connector latch.
 4. Depress the latch on the blower motor resistor wire harness connector and unplug the connector from the resistor.
 5. Remove the two screws that secure the resistor to the heater-A/C housing.
