Your post has been moved to its own thread as Hi-jacking of other threads, especially unrelated, is not on, nor fair to the op of that thread.

Hello Nigel,

A few cars have been found to have the resistor mounted incorrectly, out of sight. If yours is not one of them then you have the 3 speed system. In both cases the next step is to remove the front bumper to gain access to the fan motor and control box.

Secondly, you say that your air conditioning "isn't working". Does it blow cool air when the car is moving at, say, 50 mph?

Hi Nigel
As above in Simons post once you have access to the fan and control box, you will have four wires going to the fan motor, it will also have KV6 or SRB2 on the control box as is the photo's below should your fan be the three speed,and it is not working the low speed and medium speed as more then likely failed.

If not and you do find a hidden silver resistor this would need changing for a gold one, please report back to us Arctic.
