Hi,
As the blower is working and problem is with respect to speed adjustment.As speed is controlled by varying resistance through blower control switch.The malfunctioning of Blower control knob could be the cause.Remedy would be to get the same replaced.

The switch could probably have some carbon deposits and if cleaned by WD40 could be used again. As advised the best option will be to replace the switch if possible and can be easily done from the dash-board itself.

a definite no to what the experts have suggested ,its not the switch but the resistor which is under the dashboard on the left side of the blower which is to be replaced ,am sure bcoz faced the same problem with my s10,,palio has typical problems which is common in all palios,otherwise this gas guzzler is solid car and pleasure to drive .

as mentioned in my earlier answer the resistor is under the dashboard on the left side of the blower any odinary electrician can replace it in minutes and yes kumar is right it cost around 250/bucks ,the unfortunate thing about palio and ikon is that these cars are too advanced for any odinary road side mechanic so the simplest way for the mechanics is to ask the owner to sell it off.
