My fan for air conditioner/heater only works on the high setting. Does not have dual climate control. When I have the air conditioner on it blows very cold on the passenger side through the vents, on the drivers side vents its just kind of cool, but not really. I noticed yesterday when I turned the fan to the first setting which again, does not work, it was lightly blowing out very cold air in all the vents. I just had my air conditioner charged and apparently there is not a stuck door anywhere. I just have no idea whats going on with it but it is hot out there! Thanks in advance!

The blower motor resister sounds like the problem. When they go bad, the fan will ONLY work on high.
