Took a few days to get everyting in, but I finished it after work tonight. Replaced the fan motor, resistor and installed the plastic water deflector. All better now. ��
I was surprised that no wires were burned. There was a smoke stain inside the plastic air plenum just above the resistor. My guess is the resistor was smoking in a major way and that's what stained the plastic plenum. With all the smoke that came out of the defroster vents and out from under the hood, I would have sworn there was burned / melted wiring somewhere. It also never blew a fuse. The harness plugs and all were in perfect shape. I did a quick check of the motor and resistor before installing them. That damn resistor gets hot on low fan speeds.
Anyhow...thanks for the responses. Back to driving the GTP.
