High speed fan only

Hi all. Just had my AC serviced and worked great for a few days. Now only the high speed fan works, but still blowing nice cold air.
I replaced the resister with a brand-new one but still no luck (http://prntscr.com/fv6vle).

I fiddled with the switch inside and it came on for a bit!
Any ideas would be most appreciated !

Stephen

If you replaced the resistor and still only have high fan then either you have a bad connection, bad wiring between the switch and the resistor, or your fan switch is bad.

Or the low speed terminal in the high speed relay is bad.

Rather than replacing parts, try tracing wires with a test light or VOM to see where you aren't getting power.
