Your blower motor speed resistor is bad. Its' mounted in a hard place by the blower motor and is about $50. It's a little square electronic thing. You'll have to get a test light and test the wires by the resistor to see if it is getting power if it is then it's probably bad as the blower works. Here is the location is the resistor.
