Is it the switch or something else that actually controls the fan speed? My a/c only blows air

on the fastest setting. While good when you're real hot or real cold, it's annoying noise any other time.

If it is the switch, are they even available? I know some systems it's a resistor on the air box somewhere, or

the actual fan itself that needs replacing when this happens. So what's the deal, do I just need the dash a/c

switch, orrrrr?,,,,BB

Are they easily accessible? I wouldn't begin to know where it is, lol. Hopefully the whole dash doesn't have to be removed, or the air box dropped?,,,,BB

Sweet! Thanks for the help. I will get one of those at work tomorrow if they have one. The ironic part is that the a/c doesn't cool all that well, and it's running on high anyway. Something for the near future, as it's getting warm outside here.,,,,BB
