Well I just installed a new blower motor and resistor about two weeks ago. Everything was fine until yesterday, and my resistor went out again. So now I've only got High. I am assuming I've got another issue besides the blower motor pulling too much current since its new. Has anyone else had this issue?

Check the wiring at the connection behind the HVAC control. Its probably crispy

Nope. Its even dumber than that. Apparently when I installed it, I bent one of the coils to the point that it was making contact with another. And it got hot enough to burn clean through. Simple enough fix thank goodness.
