Re: Heater fan resistors??
On the actual heater box attached to the firewall in the engine bay, you'll see a connector with 3 wires that attaches right to the box itself - two screws hold the box side of the connector in the box, remove those screws, and pull it out. There are coil(s) inside - those coils are the resistors. It's not "resistors" like you can get at Radio Shack.
