ok i know this has been covered before but im having a new issue
so here is the back ground . i have swaped everything from a 95 four door sidekick into my 89 2 door side kick .
by everything i mean everything . dash heater , engin , trany , all of it .
when i got the 95 i the PO stated that the heater only blew on high . not an issue . its got heat .
ok so now im working on that problem .
first thing i thought of was the blower regulator . replaced it . no change .
bought a new switch . no change .
so im thinking ?? what the #$#|removethispart|@ ?????
so for the heck of it i wiggled the heater controls for the 89 up into where i could plick its speed controll switch in .
guess what , it works fine and i have all the speeds .
i replaced the old resister and still have all the speeds ???/
it doesnt look like anyone has munkied with the wireing harness . its all still factory wrapped .
so what the heck could be the deal ??????
why would the switch on from the 89 work . but the swithc from tthe 95 not ?
i pulled the switch from the 95 apart . everything looks like it makes good contact
anyone have any ideas?

Sounds like the resistor pack.

yes thats what i first thought as well . but i replaced it with a new one . and had no change . so i also replaced the switch . and again no change .
HOWEVER
when i plug in the 1989 switch " which is diffrent IE the bottom part of the switch is part of the the heater control cluster unlike the 95 which is removable "
everything then works fine .
i would think that if it was the resitor pack that switch would only have high as well
the dog gone thing is making no sense
the only thing i can think of is that the wiring has been changed . and thus correct for the 89 switch but not for the 95 . but darn if i can see where that has been done unless someone changed it in the plug . thats the only thing i can think of that would exsplain this .
i have even pulled the old switch apart and cleaned all the conections and contacts to inclyed exspanding the spring
would anyone had a shot of the back of the 95 switch and where the corisponding wires should be pluged . ???

The multi wires on the switch get hot and pull loose
from the copper terminals, I had to re-solder mine
years ago, and I think it needs it again

mmmm?
i found nothing inside the switch that could be soldered ? everything is solid plate
what did you have to solder wildgoody ?
tonight when i get home ill post a photo of the inside of the 95 switch .
maybe you could then point me to what may be the issue .

sorry no photos tonight . i stoped art a yard sale and found something i could not pass up . will try and get photos of the switch tomarrow

Ya, I got an 89' so it could be different than yours, but the wires on the switch
had come loose and I only had high speed, that was over 10 years ago, and I'm
a little unsure where they are exactly but I resoldered them and it worked again

There is a resistor wire in the heater box by the fan, the air flow keeps it cool,
that might be your problem.
I have a Japanese built 89' it might have some different electrics than yours
if you have a CAMI built truck, the switch you have looks almost nothing like
mine, mine is soldered into the harness, at least what I remember it was
