Welcome to NICO! You'd need to replace the blower motor resistor.

To get to it, you remove your glovebox.

Below is an older post from fueler regarding this:

This is a somewhat common problem in Pathfinders and QX4 96-04. Blower motor resistor. Blower motor - take out the glove box, look on the blower box. 1 screw and a harness to disconnect and its out. The blower motor resistor is just below the blower motor. It has a four pin white connector and two #2 phillips screws holding it in. Unplug it, remove the two screws, remove the old one and pop in a new one. Takes 10 minutes, 20 minutes tops to do. This is a dealership part. info here http://www.4x4parts.com/ubbthr...10456

thanks for the help got it out and took it to the dealer and got a new one . One more question is what is the gas milage on that car because i cant seem to get no more then 12 mpg if im lucky and ive had the car since it had only 40k miles and it know has 100k im getting plugs replaced shortly is that worth the time ?

I also get aournd 12 - 15 mpg.... and my QX4 is maintained and I drive like a granny most of the time. Have you changedthe fuel filter

Same here. . I was able to score just over 13 in town last time, and I was excited about that.

Just finished putting things back together.Could not find the resistor to be replaced and the only thing that looks likely is not similar to the replacement part.Was there
