Re: Air Conditioner/Heater Fan Switch 87 325ic

It's not the switch that's bad, it's the resistor module.  It's located on 
the blower motor.

To access it, you will work inside the engine compartment.  There is an 
access panel on the firewall that must be removed, then you'll remove the 
blower cover (held on with plastic straps), and you'll find the resistor 
module.

Here's a picture, although it doesn't show the resistor module...

The replacement costs around $25.
