My blower motor stopped working on my vehicle listed above and I've narrowed it down to the blower motor resistor. I've removed the glove box and located the blower motor to check and clean the blower and want to replace the resistor. If anyone could give me any pointers where it's actually located that would be much appreciated.

We don't have this car in the states so it is difficult to tell you, want I can say is it should be near the blower motor itself for cooling. can you upload images of the blower motor area? That way I can point it out to you.

Hi Ken, thanks for your reply, appreciate it. I had another go at locating it today and managed to find it. I have attached a photo so if anyone else has this problem in the future. It requires a typical removal of glovebox to get to the HVAC, but the key thing is to remove the funnel that is sitting g right in front of it - this unclips with a bit of effort.

Thanks again.
