That's how my fan works, too. One click puts it on HI, another puts it on MED and the last turns on SLOW.

the button may get stuck or the sensor may be off.... also it could be that the setting is backwards on the fan to start on the fastest and end on the slowest

The only speed selection is when you select print quality, draft is fastest, and selecting best will slow the printer down to snail speed.
