The blowers in most cars have a blower regulator that determines how much current is given to the blower based on what selection you make from a knob etc. See if you can research the blower regulator. That is normally the problem instead of the blower itself if it is work on on one speed and not the others.

Hate to ask but where is the "blower regulator" located?

They vary in location. Some are behind or near the back of the glove box, others are behind the big fuse boxes under the hood near the firewall. Its best to ask the dealer if they have a location of it or hope you get lucky and find a Youtube video of where it is. Most likely one of those two places is where you have the best chance of finding it. Search Youtube for a 1993 Buick Lesabre blower motor regulator to see the one I posted that one was behind the big fuse boxes on the outside of the firewall and a real puzzle.

I have a 1969 Chevy Corvette. I have rebuilt or replaced almost every thing. I have not replaced the original A/C compressor but converted it to the new Eco friendly freon. I had it tested three times, had the cooler boxes cleaned out, fan replaced, yet I have trouble getting the car cool. I live in So. Cal. where it is a necessity of life to have the A/C work as good as when new from the factory. I put in heat/sound shielding under the floor mats, and had all components check for proper functioning. I was thinking of going to a serpentine belt system that would get the newest A/C compressor with the system. Has anyone done this or have any suggestions? 9 Answers

The A/C system does not leak, holds the proper pressure
