Default 2001 climate control sporadic issues

Hey All,
The dual climate control on my 2001 MC only works when it wants to. Sometimes only high fan speeds work, sometimes all work. When it's dead neither the outside air or recirculate button is lit and the rear defrost will not work.
Also, I noticed today that the outside air button was lit but when I tried turning up the fan speed that light faded out and the fan did not work. When I turned the fan back to off the light came back on.
All connections are tight. Wondering if the blower motor control module/resistor is dying or if the climate control panel itself is the problem. Thanks for any input offered.

Didn't find anything wrong with the wiring, replaced the resistor but that didn't help. Wound up replacing the control panel itself. Amazon has it for under $100, stealership wanted 250.
