Welcome to 2CarPros.

This vehicle doesn't have a traditional resister. Instead, it has a module that operates fan speed. The unit is called the manual climate control module (MCC). Here are the directions for replacement. The attached pictures correlate with the directions.

Manual Climate Control (504)

MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL (504)
MCC Unit (504)

Carry out measures before dismantling the control module.

To remove
1. Remove the MCC unit by carefully pulling it out. Use 82 93 474 Removal tool to remove the unit.

IMPORTANT: Take care when releasing the locking mechanism on the connector so as not to damage the connector. Pull the halves straight apart to avoid bending the pins. For further information regarding connectors, refer to Connectors, handling and inspection.

2. Remove the MCC unit's connector.

The control panel is not what I asked about. The resister that looks like a bunch of different spikes is what I cannot find. Thank you.

Welcome back:

Is this a blower motor resister? I'm not sure what you are referring to. I'm trying. LOL
