Electrical problem

I have a problem with the a/c and heat blower not working on the high position. I replaced the high speed relay under hood and checked the resistor in the evaporator container. I also swapped the selector in the dash with another one and still no high speed. I'm thinking its wiring but not sure. It's hard to troubleshoot because you can't leave the selector plugged in and access the wiring to check voltage. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

With the switch in Hi position, test for 12 volts at the orange wire on the resistor.If it has it, the same should be at the blower, if not test at the switch for 12 out of the switch at the orange wire.If ok, test continuity between the switch and resistor, then motor orange wire
