THANKS for the final stage resister DIY

[rudejamaican]

Just want to say THANK YOU for this great write up on replacing the Final stage resistor, It is hot as hell in Atlanta and my Blower died . Did some search and found the Final stage resistor DIY. got my part from the dealer today for $98. with this DIY I replace my FSR in 20 min, I did not have to remove the Glove Box which was a big time saver. Now my baby is blowing COLD again . Thank you

Use this DIY and you will be fine, its pretty easy, I did it without removing the glove box, but it a pretty tight squeeze to reach the FSR.

I just replaced my FSR a few minutes ago. I removed the glove box though. I bought a new FSR off Ebay for $65 plus $7.50 for shipping. Thanks X5 World for the DIY! I love it.
