It sounds like you have a problem with the resistors that control the fan speed,as these are used on the three slower speeds.

Apparently the resistor assembly is at the bottom of the heater motor enclosure,and has four fairly thick wires going into it.

A friend of mine also had this on a focus

HTH.
