Avanti blower switch

[JBOYLE]

My Avanti's bower motor only seems to work on high. (On the overhead switch panel, the left fan switch turns power on, the right only makes noise in one position).

Do I need a new switch or is it somewhere else in the system?

I'm not an expert.....usually lower speeds are controlled by a resistor in the ciruit.If that resistor goes bad (or all the smoke leaks out) you will loose low speed. The switch itself is easy to disassemble & inspect. Then look at the wires attached to the resistor for signs of heat.If you have an electrical meter you can even check the resistor.
