The blower resistor is broken. Its a common issue, its fails due to corrosion. Its located under the dash on the passengers side. Its a pretty easy fix.

JSutter has it, blower resistor is toast. It should be on the passenger side under the glove box and is held in place with two screws. It is a 10 minute fix and should cost $30-35 if i remember correctly.

The blower resistor was $25 from the dealer when I replaced mine 9 years ago.

I agree, it's a super easy fix - 2 phillips screws and one electrical connector. But I do remember having to lie on my back on the passenger seat with my head under the dash to see what I was doing. Like most things would be way easier the second time around - 5 minutes tops.
