Many thanks to Dan and the list. I drove my vanagon to the shop and was
prepared to leave it for most of the day for the new blower motor. As per
Dan's suggestion that it could be the switch I asked my mechanic to replace
that first and see the result. It worked fine and on all three speeds after
putting in the new switch. Looks like I owe Dan a beer or two! I was not
looking forward to the big bill of changing the blower motor.
Thanks again Dan,

Bernie
