You really should have it tested by a qualified tech to be safe.

How much u wanna bet a bad resistor won't blow fuses? Happened to me...kept on blowin, turned out to be the resistor doin it afterall. The reason it might work on high only is becuz is uses NO resistance on high...there for, no need for a resistor.
Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.
