Re: Blower Resistor Resistor - where to get it !
Also just did mine, after doing this in a few american cars this one was a piece of cake. Nobody laugh, but i put mine all in and nothing.. my fuse was blown. Yes, I did not check it first, and yes I know better. bad news it was fried to a crisp, actually melted the plastic in the fuse box holder some. It was hard to get the destroyed fuse out (how it melted in half I cant figure, the fuse should have blown) The plastic after being that hard is brittle as heck, ugly job getting the old fuse out without breaking the fuse spot more. I think i will have to rewire in a INLINE fuse and eliminate that one fuse spot. It in and working but im worried the connection wont be good. I had the fan on med for about 20 minutes and the fuse has no heat so it must be ok.. but its just not good after the heat its had. good news its just the one fuse spot, all fuses around it the plastic is fine. Silly little thing but now i want a whole new fuseblock.
The fuse evidently didn't do it job, the actual fuse was melted in half, 2 pieces, not just a burnt out fuse, and one side was just metal (the plastic was all melted off). I am assuming i must have had a bad resistor after all as the FAN is fine (tested it when it was out, checked brushes etc).
