Ok, I know this subjech has been covered a million times, but I have to ask.

My blower won't work on pos. 1. When i trick it and put it to 1½ it works. Pos. 2 works kinda like no. 1. Pos. 3 is the same as no. 4 (No difference).

Now I have had the controls out a few times and what i can see is that the blower speed regulator is mechanical and pulls a wire which goes "somewhere inside the car". Where does this wire go? Doesn't this wire pull a switch somewhere?

I have read about the sword and resistor packs, but as far as I can see the problem is mechanichal. Since I can turn the knob a bit to "in between positions" the before mentioned wire obviously does something?

Can somebody please explain this to me?

you can check it. It might be the switch which is out of order.
Maybe even a blast with a good electrical contact stray might help.

Here is a link to disassemble the parts.
