A/C and heater settings work on level 3 & 4, but not on level 1 & 2

My 2001 Accord EX coupe 4 cylinder A/C and heater settings work on level 3 & 4, but not on 1 & 2. It blows air on level 3 & 4, but absolutely no air on level 1 & 2. My friend said it may be a relay issue. Has anybody has this happen to them?

Sounds like a resistor

Certainly a resistor.

I brought it to a Honda dealership service center and they said the blower motor transistor needed to be replace, cost $248 for parts and labor. Expensive, I think I might buy the part online and do it myself, there's a youtube instruction video I found

They are easy, unlike zee germanz, we make those cake. ~5 min @ dealership, plus 2min to diag.
