The air blower in my Nissan Sentra 98 stopped working except in the highest setting (4). Any suggestions as to what needs to be done to get it to work on all speeds/settings??

Replace the blower motor resistor. This controls the lower speeds.

Should be located under the dash right next to the blower motor mounted to the ducting so the resistors are in the air stream. Look for a plug coming from the wiring harness near the motor plug.
