Help: Why doesn't my heater blower work?

Yes, my girlfriends car did this - it was a ballast resistor, or some sort of a resistor that has to do with the blower motor circuit.

I think it was a cheap 20-30 dollar part, and cost about an hour of labor.

Yes its the blower resistors. When your on "High" voltage doesnt go through any of them.

Yes its the resistor very common ....GM has a new resistor that dont go out as much...But for some reason they still do....Dont let them charge you more than a half an hour...It only takes someone who knows what they are doing around 20 mins Steve C

Hello:

Where are those "resistors" located? Could I possibly replace them? Would a good auto parts store know what I am talking about? Thanks guys!
