Default A/C blower control not working on medium setting

09 quad Hemi 2x4. Manual hvac controls. So I noticed today that my ac and heater blower turns off when set to the second lowest setting. Also the illuminated light indicating ac and recirculating also turn off on this setting. All other settings work as should. Possible switch issue or blower motor issue? Can anyone point me in the right direction on a fix? I have the max care but avoiding the dealer if possible.
Thanks. Wes

Blower motor resistor block would be my guess.

Im going to assume the block is behind the dash. Can I get to it from the glove box?

I just found a video on a 2008. Hopefully it’s the same location. Looks to be under the dash next to the blower motor. Easy swap and about 25 bucks. Thanks for the help

So I just wanted to follow up on my post. Got the part for about 30-40 bucks online. The location is next to the blower motor under the glove box. 2 screws and about a 5 minute job. Looking at the pictures, the other settings were ready to stop working soon as well. Thanks for the help. Wes.
