Re: fan switch
Did they make a bad run of panels?
I know there is a recall if the heater doesn't work on some because the dash grounds come loose. What are 'tree switches' and what part is actually bad?

The dealer parts people will argue the point but if you make them drill down in the parts catalog you can replace just the 4 way switch and not the entire panel .

Unusual for the lower powered lines to die though, usually it's the high that takes out the input contact.... At least the OP can check his resistor pack before opening the dash.

He then suggested I check it out in the parking lot if I could. Sure enough it was bad right out of the box and he got me another. It lasted about a year. I stopped at another dealership to get one and the parts guy swore that the only way I could replace it was to buy the whole panel. Only after some significant prodding did he drill down and find out it wasn't necessary. Needless to say I haven't gone back there for anything else...
