It will most likely be the blower resistors, they control the fan speed.
There is a small section on the output of the fan which has 4 wires going to it and it unscrews. You will have to get another resistor block.

If you look in the area under the glovebox, you will see the blower motor at the bottom (cylindrical metal thing with a wire coming out of it)
Not far from this, is a plug in the plastic ducting that has a square plug with 4 wires going to it. It is held in with 2 screws i think.
Take some photos, post them up and i will point it out. I dont have an L series anymore so i cant take a photo myself

My pics are turned off but if you found 3 coils of wire of different thickness of the wire you have found first, second and third gear of your fan motor, top gear is straight through power.

Yep thats it.
Just go to a wreckers and find another that has the little coils intact
