Thanks Randy. Just talked with the Ford Cust. Svc. people, ran the VIN, and the car is not under this recall. (99 Contour SE V6).
Figures. So anyway I talk to the local dealer parts dept. and the person said that he always has the resistor and the pigtail in stock and it would cost me about $60-$70 total. Does that figure sound correct?
Can I just buy the resistor and not worry about the pigtail. I am figuring that the pigtail is nothing to worry about, since it is not recalled?
Thanks for all your help.
Can't find my receipt right now, so not sure if that is good price or not. Anyway, I did this about 8 months ago, so price may have changed. In my case, the connector had gotten so hot that it melted a couple of wires and part of the connector, so replacing the pig-tail was a must. I checked the resistor with an ohmeter and it seemed to be ok, just burned the connector up!
