Default heater blower/fan

The heater blower/fan stop working this morning, someone told me to check/change the resistor located on the heater box. The thing is that I don't know where this damn thing is.

Can someone tell me where is this damn box and resistor are and they are easy of access ??

Thanks in advance

Before I'd tear the car apart to get at the fan resistor, have you thought of checking the fuses to see if one of those has blown?

I agree. If the resistor was the problem, the fan would work on the #4 setting but not 1, 2 or 3. Since the fan doesn't work at all, my guess would be the fues or the blower itself.

I can now tell that the resistor and the fuse arent the problem so it's the blower motor.

Now I found a used one. Now I have to manage how to change this thing without riping all the dash apart [:@].
