The blower resistor is probably rusted and the contacts have separated. You don't have to remove anything to get to it. IIRC it is behind the glove box. You have to get right up under the dash with your head against the floor and look up. It is held in with 2 screws. It's tricky because you can't see it while trying to unbolt it. You basically have to do it by feel.
I got a pic, but it's even hard to back enough to get it.

I tried to find a parts drawing to show you the resistor location but the Ford part sites do not show the blower box, click this link http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php to see at least what you are looking for and perhaps it will help. I'll see if I can get a picture for you later today from the salvage yard if I make it there before they close.
