I'm answering my own question because I found a lot of good information and wanted to simplify it and put it in one spot.
If you're Jeep is starting to lose its fan speeds (the slower ones aren't working and the faster or fastest are) then its most likely going to be your blower motor resistor. A lot of Jeep owners and other owners of Chrystler vehicles have the same problem. It could be a defective resistor or just a short in the system the fries the resistor, I'm not entirely sure.
I would head out to your local parts store and pick one of these resistors up, places like autozone can look it up for you, and I recommend them because they have a limited lifetime gaurentee, so if this happens again it should be covered (I hope)
I put all the bullets in there to seprate, it was hard to read otherwise, don't forget to scroll down and check out the related links for the pictures.
Where is the resistor on 2001 jeep wrangler
Replace the blower motor resistor.
The blower motor speed resistor is burned out. You can replace only the resistor but the resistor probably burned out because the blower motor is going bad. If you want to fix it for good, replace both the blower motor and blower motor speed resistor.
in your but
Check to see if you are getting power to blower motor - if so replace blower motor If not check fuse, switch, resistor pack.
Blower motor resistor is the most common problem. it is held in by 2 screws under the glovebox area. Easy to replace.
Check to see if you have 12 volts at the blower motor. If yes then the blower motor is bad. If no, then the resistor, relay, or fuse is bad.
Pull out the lock on the blower motor resistor wire harness connector to unlock the connector latch . Depress the latch on the blower motor resistor wire harness connector and disconnect the connector from the resistor. Remove the two screws that secure the blower motor resistor block to the HVAC housing. Remove the resistor block from the HVAC housing............
To replace a blower motor on the resistor first you take off the nozzle and then you go into the motor through the nozzle and unlock it then repeat and oil and done.
# Locate the blower resistor under the right-side of the instrument panel # Disconnect the electrical connector from the blower motor resistor # Remove the blower motor resistor mounting screws and remove the resistor from the housing # Installation is the reverse of removal
replace the blower motor switch
you need a new blower motor resistor with auto temp control
