89 Sundance (shadow) Resistor Pak Loc?

89 Sundance I found a couple of posts in here that said the blower resistor pak was either on the Pass side firewall, or behind the glove box.

Have looked and looked, both places. Cannot find it.



Have probably replaced a dozen of em' on Dakota pickups. Does it look about the same?



They are usually in the air-stream, near the blower motor. I can't even spot THAT! Maybe I need glasses.



Any other suggestions on location? Thanks "Leroy"


It was under the windshield cowl behind the washer reservoir......you have to remove the wiper arms, the trim molding, and the bottle. "Leroy"

if it's not too late a post..

the resistor pack has to be removed from the inside. it's about 6 inches up and behind the glove box. way up there. just about at the bottom of the windshiled. you can probably see it when you look in that vent on the passenger side under the corner of the windshield *on the outside*.

what i did with mine was simply bust the old one out, and then i took out the screw-bolt things ( i think i was an 8mm) with my fingers.

much easier that way. but yeah... some of them poke outside the car from the inside. very annoying.

look i'm replying to myself. i totally missed the part when you solved your own problem. :s

i should go get some more sleep

Hi, I also have a 89 Sundance....you were posting about a Resistor Pak Loc....I am curious as to what the significance of this is. I am curious to know!

The resistor pack is used in conjunction with the blower speed switch to control the speed of the A/c-heater blower. The blower motor is a

1-speed motor and various resiostances are switched into series with it by the speed switch to obtain different speeds. If you loose 1 or more blower speeds the resistor pack is the problem. If you loose all blower speeds it CAN be the problem, also. I had lost the two slowest speeds. Replacing the resistor pack cured it.

Much simpler, and much less work, than pull>Hi,
