My fan blows on low on all the settings except 3 and even then, it does not blow wide open. I checked all fuses, the fan motor and still nothing seems to work.

Hello,

This could be due to a faulty blower motor resistor. Many times when these resistors go bad it will only allow one speed of fan.
The resistor is located under the passenger side dash.

I have attached diagrams below for your reference, also included the test procedure for the resistor.

Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
