    For me this is a new problem that I myself did lmao.

    I changed my blower motor and also the resistor with the harness.

    my AC was working only on low or high as the other speeds were stuck on low even when changing the dial to medium and medium high.

    i took it apart and I’m not sure how to properly fix such dial issue, any recommendations?

    Sounds like the blower switch is bad, is the connector burnt at the switch?

    You talking fan speed, regardless if AC is on, yes? Look for burnt marks on the two connectors. If you see any, you need to clean them up or re-wire the connectors.

    The blower switch connector is not burnt as it was working.

    i took it apart as I wanted to check the speed switch as it was only engaging in high and low for the rest of the speeds. I put it back together and I guess I didn’t do it properly and now it’s not working. I was searching for a video or diagram to fix it but there isn’t anything available.

    So you took the switch itself apart?

    Not sure I can help you there very much, you pretty much have to get all the little springs and contacts back where they belong which can be a challenge.
    I've never had one of those apart but I've had other switches apart and some are nearly impossible to get back together.

    Oooops.

    That may have been a bad move.

    If you can't get it back working by putting all the parts back in the right places you will probably have to get a new or used control module.

    If you can locate one in a junk yard it would be considerably cheaper.

    Good luck.
