Take the glovebox out and I think there is an access cutout that might help. Get yourself a Parts catalogue -Illustrations which gives exploded views and is really helpful. I think I dropped the blower motor housing, at least 2 screws undone in the plenum chamber, could be more, to access the resistor bank.

I've found the best access to the heater resistor is thru the LH vent.
Use a small screwdriver to remove the upper swivel vent & then use a long Philips screwdriver to go between the blades of the lower swivel vent to undo the 2 screws which retain the whole assembly.
Pull the vent assembly out & then the hole remaining in the dash is large enough to access the resistor.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |
