My heater blower worked yesterday, not today, and so on. Looked up online and found that the solution is the blower motor resister was bad. I am trying to find the location for it or a tutorial on how to change it along with the location of the resister. Do not believe it is a hard job. Mystery comes from location of said part. I do not want to start taking things apart looking. car is pristine and I do not want unnecessary rattles. Any help would be appreciated.

Remove the front cover under the dash on the passenger side. Disconnect the blower motor connector, then remove the screws (1 in picture), Disconnect the connector on the resistor and remove the resistor. Reverse the process to install the new one.
