Question heater fan speeds

Hi I have an s111 forte and the heater has only got 1 speed, flat out or nothing.

I have tried different fan switch, but it was no different.

Does anybody have a idea what the problem might be?

cheers

Rick

there is a resistor unit behind the glovebox thats your problem, it is flush mounted with the resistor inside near the fan to keep it cool
