I have a 93 Maxima with the auto climate control. The problem is that the blower now only works on high. It does not blow on the other 3 settings, just on high. Please help me fix.
Thanks,Eric

Sounds like you need to replace the blower motor resistor. This is located in the ducting just downstream of the blower motor. It controls the lower speeds.

Can you provide a more specific location. A picture would be great. Do I need to take the blower motor out to get at the resister? It's just not obvious where it is located.
Thanks,Eric

Suggested Repair

Replace the blower motor resistor. It is in the ducting just downstream of the blower motor, under the dashboard, and the blower motor does not need to be removed to access it.
