I have a question about my heater. It blows like hell on high but on low med it hardly does anything. I went to my local Napa and they said its a common problem with the resistors. They have 2 kinds in stock, a 3 pin and a 5 pin connector. Where do I find mine at to see what one I need?

The resistor is on top of of the HVAC box behind the dash, if you remove the glovebox you can see it on top, it's held in by 7mm screws.

I had the same problem and it ended up being the fan control pigtail on the back of the hvac controls under the radio . It had melted the plug and shorted out , I went to the junkyard and got the wiring plug and pigtail , wired it in and it fixed mine, just something to think about if the resister doesn't fix it .
