So I finally decided to replace my blower resistor today. It usually works perfectly, but gradually getting worse and worse over the past year or so. It'll go 4-5 months, no problems, then a week where it gets stuck on high, on and off during the day.

So I unplug the connector to find it was burnt up pretty bad. One wires shielding was actually missing at the base. Resistor was burnt pretty bad too.

Anyone else ever see this on theirs? And who do I call to complain about this?








BTW, part number for the resistor is no longer YS4Z18591BA. It is now 3M5Z18591BA. It also went up a few bucks from the old price.

I noticed mine is the same way the other day. The thing is I thought my car already had the recall done to it... maybe not I guess. Can I still have this recall performed? Or do they have some stupid mileage restriction as my car has 127k on it.

I thought about having the recall done but I just said fug it. The part is so easy and cheap to replace. I don't feel like going, making an appointment with the dealer for 1 week later, have to sit around and wait while some idiot works on my car.
