This can be tested with a short (2 Ft.) length of wire.
Turn the Fan on High and attach one end of the wire to ground and then to the Black wire
The black wire is supposed to be under the stud nearby that holds the air box together.
This may not be the issue but this is what I found when my high speed on the fan was not operating on High Speed
This is the fan high speed relay. The ground wire is suppose to go under the screw that holds the relay to the heater core box. Without the ground, it won't operate at all.

Again, the OP: Don't do away with the anti-dieseling relay circuiting. If the wiring is in good shape, the anti-dieseling relay can be removed and everything should still work perfectly (except anti-dieseling). But, you WILL want anti-dieseling for the cooler season when you are not using the a/c.
