Speaking of Blower Motor Resistors
 

Hey all,

After both scouring this group and tracing wires in Muky for what seems
like weeks, I'm admitting defeat.

So, where the [bleep] is the resistor pack on a YJ? I have seen many,
many references to TJ resistor packs, but only a couple vague references
to earlier Wranglers. Could be I'm not going back far enough; the
closest I've been able to figure is that it's somewhere in the vicinity
of the blower housing, but I haven't taken the time take that apart yet.
Anyone have more specific directions?

Medium and low fan settings would be *very* nice to have as fall creeps
slowly into the PNW...


And, for the record, my list of things to fix on Muky is down to two:
This, and the rear defroster. Very minor problems, but annoying none the
less. :)

It on the fresh air intake assembly, level with the bottom of the dash,
about 8" from the passenger side body. Look for a red plastic assembly
with 3 tabs comming out. PN 5503 5958

They put them in different places for different years. The early ones
had them on the very right of the heater box in the passenger footwell.

If it's where Bill says, then it is under a plastic cover you need to
remove one screw to open. The back screw is on a slot.
