Can anyone give me a ball park range for replacing a Blower motor in a Dodge minivan? The fan now only works on the highest speed, and I want to replace it before we move!

2. Probably not the motor.

Fan speed is controlled by a multi-section resistor. High speed is direct voltage, the slower speeds are through the resistor. What happens is the resistor breaks internally and does not pass current. If this happens befor the high speed link then the fan only works at high speed.

You can get a new resistor at the dealer or a junkyard.

3. I don't know anything, but

I'd tyhink if the fan works only at highest speed that the problem is closer to the switch than to the motor
