2002 Town and Country - AC Fan only on high speed?

    I have a CH Town and Country Minivan, the AC (internal) fans, both the
    front and rear ones, work only on High Speed - they do not work on
    slower speeds. Since both fans do this I'm guessing a fuse?

    Anyone else see this?

    On the LH car version of the electronically controlled A/C, the fan speed os
    controlled by an electronic unit which proved to be very unreliable. So
    that's where I've seen that happen. When it screwed up, mine stuck on high.
    It costs about $500, so high didn't seem such a bad thing after I found that
    out.

    We don't have the Limited, and our controls are a Dial type speed
    selector for speed (4 or 5 positions) one for the front and one the
    back, both do the same.

    I've been reading about a Resistor block that can be replaced for about
    $40 (you buy and do the work) and about a electronic version that is
    just some FET that is located behind the glove-box...

    I don't know where mine is, but I suspect it's the resistor type as we
    don't have the Climate control like my 4Runner Limited does.

    Consider also that the blower motors load the resistor paks more as they
    age. People often find that a new resistor pak will burn up in a short
    time. If that happens, you then know that you need to replace the
    blower motors along with the burned up resistor paks - otherwise, you
    will just keep going thru new resistor paks.

    Since I have a fan speed in the front dash for both and then the rear
    speed about the second seat (roof), where would the second resistor pack
    be located (near the 1st on in the Dash?)?
