Default 98 escort air con switch

Newbie here :O)

Can anyone help me? I put my air con on yesterday, and although it cools fine, of the 3 positions 1,2 & 3 only 3 (full on) works.

Are 1 & 2 linked in anyway?

Any tips on where to start?

check the resistor on the blower motor. positions 1 and 2 run through it to reduce the voltage to the motor for lower speed, and 3 does not. it will be broken, that's why t don't work on postions 1 and 2
