Q: Ac works only works when fan is in high
I'm having a strange issue and wanted to see if anyone can help out. My ac and heat only works on the highest speed. If I turn it down to 3 or lower it just turns off. I have replaced the blower motor resistor which seemed to help for a bit but it's doing the same thing. The strange thing is if I turn the defrost on then back to regular ac all speeds work unless I leave it on the highest setting for too long then go to turn it down, the ac turns off. Thanks in advance!
