Angry Fan for heater will only work on level 3??

My heater fan will only work on level 3 on my 99 s-10. Does anyone know what the problem is? If I need to take it somewhere to get it fixed how much would it be?

Probably the most expensive switch that you could imagine.

They usually aren't that hard to replace, you just have to take the dash apart a little... It'll probably be a dealer item only, so you might want to get one from the wrecker.

That's funny because mine DOES'NT work on the third setting but it's good on the rest and....ya....i've heard the same thing about fixing the problem might be alittle $steep$ so i'll wait tell it just stops working all together before i fix it.

you realize by doing this, the heater will sence the day that has started off bad and either go out on the coldest morning in your areas history, or wait till after school/work and then not start to cap your day off quite nicely

How can I put this nicely....?

You are .... RIGHT, very true... and will probably happen when you don't have the time, and or money to fix it plus right after everyone just sold their last switch.
