Chip for the fan?

My fan for my car right now only has 2 speeds working on it right now and thats the last two which is pretty annoying cus its pretty loud and I don't need it to be running at such blasts and a friend of mine used to have the same car and she said that there was a type of chip of somesort in the glove compartment that always needs to be replaced in order to have the first 2 speeds to work, but she says that its not a fuse is this even possable at all or is she in a dreamworld? cus it sounds kind of sketch and I'm too lazy to take apart my whole console for nothing thanks

Blower Resistor

I had a similar problem with my 98 Sunfire GT in which only positions 3 & 4 (the two highest settings) were the only ones working. It ended up being the blower resistor unit which was actually a printed circuit board without any "conventional" resistor components. The blower resistor unit is located near the interior passenger floor side of the vehicle. Simply remove the cover under the lower passenger side of the dash, remove your blower motor (X3 screws), then disconnect the blower motor wiring harness. With a flashlight, look inside the area where the blower motor was seated and you should see a small circuit board located near the rear (towards the front of the vehicle). In my case, I noticed that some of the circuit board runs were "burnt", so I disconnected the wiring harness to the blower resistor and removed the two screws (one of them was a real pain to remove). A new part is about $45 Canadian or if you do what I did, I removed one from a vehicle at an auto wreckers and only paid $5. Good luck.
