Jim, if the fan is working on the lowest speed then the fan is good
and I would suspect the switch.  The fans default at the highest speed,
then they have a resistor that gives them the slower speeds.  If the
resistor was bad the low speed wouldn't work.  If the fan was bad it
wouldn't work at all.  So if the fan is working on the lowest speed then
it must be the switch or the wiring.  If you are adventurous you can
even attempt to repair your old switch as usually all that is wrong is
that the contacts inside are corroded.  Just be sure when you pop the
switch open you mark how the body was so you can put it back together
the same way.  Clean the points inside with some sand paper and you
should be good to go.  Or let me know and I can supply you with a new
switch.
