    it is getting cold in sunny VT, have fan issues. Fan only works on high, occasionally for the rest of the spectrum but not reliable enough. I think it is the switch, how do I replace it? I also have some dead lights for my switches...how do you replace them.

    Thanks guys..I have been driving toyota trucks for 34 years, the 22r's were easier to work on.

    Could be the blower motor resistor, it's a common problem

    Wiggle the resistor plug first while in a mid speed and see if the fan starts. Do a search, LOTS of info on this. Bad resistor, bad/melted connector, and loose pins in the connector are all possibilities.
