Did you just replace the resistor? It sits in the air system. When I changed the resistor in my 1985 Dodge Lancer, it gave off whitish smoke for a few minutes, and I saw the smoke because I tested it before installing the resistor in the hole. Some kind of oil..

Might be good to check the resistor.

Yes, it could. When you said "a/c on max", you meant MAX A/C right? Not maximum blower speed, right? On many occasions, I have had vapors/mist coming out when I have the A/C on Max with a low blower speed (especially when it rains or when it is very humid). When that happens, I will turn it to Panel and maximum blower speed. I read that was what one should do in a another vehicle's owners' manual. I don't recall reading it in our Contours (but I followed the same procedure).

There is nothing wrong except that it is too cold to have it on high blower speed when it rains. I usually have it on low speed and max A/C
Edited. Read your post incorrectly.
