Why does AC Heat work only on high setting?

I'm assuming that the fan only blows on the high setting. This is due to a resistor that has failed and needs to be replaced. I had this problem on my '98 GP where setting 1 stopped working, then 2 and three in sequence. The tech explained that a resistor had blown. After replacing the failed parts, they began to burn out again in the same sequence after a few years. The car was wrecked before I had it repaired again.

AnswerI think it is the switch or the wires. Actually it would most likely be the resistor motor is shot, if the blower motor only blow on high there is no resistance thus it will only work on high.

Why would a 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GT heat work on a high setting It was on the 3rd setting and now I have to put it on the 4th setting in order for it to work?

fan selector switches are usually riostats it will not make good contact on other settings and therefor only works on 1 setting change switch byou can pull it and check with meter Replace the blower resistor. It is under the glove box, behind the blower motor. My 2001 Grand Prix did the same thing. It used to work nicely on setting 2, and over time had to increase to setting 3, 4 and so on to get the same amount of heat. Eventually was getting no heat at all. Brought it to the garage and they replaced the blower mechanism and all was well.

Why would your heater in a 1997 Hyundai elantra only work on high but does not blow out no air on settings 1 2 and 3?

Many cars have a blower motor resistor which regulates the lower speeds. When this burns out the only setting that will work is the high setting. I suggest you check with your dealer about getting this part and its location on your car. I hope this helps you. Mark
