Default 89 Laredo fan only works on high

Hi, this might be a simple fix this time.

My air conditioning needed recharging and then I noticed that the fan was only working on high.

When I put it on medium or low the fan doesn't work.

Maybe one of you have had this happen before.

As always.... thanks!

John

PS yesterday I just finished installing my new camo headliner.
It came out nice thanks to you guys.

Good morning!~I looked under the dash on the passenger side and couldn't find any thing.
There is a black cover screwed in and it is hiding a wiring harness plugged into something. It has about 6 wires taped up and plugged in.
Also a while back I had the passenger side kick panel off and there was a bunch of wires in there.
I guess I need more information.
Thanks!~John

I just went outside, removed the screw, took the photo, edited the photo, added text, uploaded it to Photobucket, and posted it here just for you John.....

Nice Crusier! I thought of helping as well. Illegal fire tax. In California. changed my day. The state board of equalization looted my bank account and is putting a levy against my property. Yes, they went into my Wells account and took what they could. "Taxation without Representation". (I'm gonna throw their tee in the harbor!). CA illegal fire tax. Everyone involved is committing conspiracy to commit felony fraud. Without a 2/3 approval by the Ca. legislature they are not within the law, and committing fraud. It's clearly stated in Article 13a of the Ca. state Constitution. I want to find a lawyer who will sue them in CIVIL court. They know they are not within the law.

I wanted to help John, but was busy finding out trying to contact anyone is like swinging at smoke. "voice mail not set up" for instance.

Man!~ you guys are great! Didn't know that owning a Jeep could be so cool.
Ok! That is the wiring harness I was talking about. Have a parts Jeep and maybe that one is still good or get one at O'Reilly Auto Parts next time in town. You know what they say a picture is worth a million words. You guys must really love Jeeps.
THANK YOU! Cruiser54 & DFlintstone.
