My blower fan is on high only. I understand that it is the resistor. I bought one and I've been told to replace it behind the battery in the engine compartment. NO.I've been told that it is behind the glove box.I took the glove box out and I don't see it. I've been told it was under the dash on the passenger side.I don't see it. Do I have to take some stuff off from under the dash? Please be as specific as possible as to the location of the resistor. I think I know what I'm looking for, but I just can't find it. Thanks.

Hi Kyle

I'm not familiar with your wheels but 99 % of vehicles locate the resistor in the air chamber between the fan and air outlets usually held in with 2 screws and 4 wires. Sometimes located behind the glovebox handy to the fan motor.
Generally they blow because forign objects in the fan assembly stalling the motor therefore no breeze over the resitor overheating then blows, so check your fan operates easily !
