    Blower resistor. This is basically behind the glove box. At least, that's why your fan is only working on high. As for the headlights, that's a bit odd. I'd blame gremlins...

    Meh. There was a TSB on this pointing to the ignition. One of the fixes was to wire in a resistor.


    TSB #PIC-5351ANHTSA ID #10042292
    Date Announced:
    OCTOBER 11 2011
    Additional Info:
    How to Fix
    SUMMARY:
    PONTIAC: CERTAIN VEHICLES ARE EXHIBITING INOPERATIVE BLOWER MOTOR, EXCEPT ON HIGH SETTING OR DRL'S INOPERATIVE OR HEADLAMPS INOPERATIVE RATHER HIGH OR LOW BEAMS AND THE REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER IS INOPERATIVE. *

    Yea definitely look at the ignition switch. it's a common problem and so is the blower motor resistor.
