Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros. Com. The problem with your blower motor is related to the blower motor resister. I am struggling to find specific information for this vehicle because it was not manufactured for the US. Additionally, it was marked under a few different names.

Therefore, I will try my best to help you with this problem. First, you will need to locate the blower motor resister. Most likely, it will be located under the dash and behind the glove box. There you will find the blower motor and HVAC distribution box. I have attached pictures of what a blower motor resister looks like and where they are normally located.

Once you locate the resister, there will most likely be two screws holding it in place. Disconnect the wiring plug, remove the two retaining bolts, and then slide the resister out from the unit. Replacement is the opposite of removal.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe

The resistor is behind the glove box so you will have to remove it.
