Blower resistor is on the ductwork. Look for wires plugging into a ~thing~ mounted on the ductwork. Rust is metal cancer. It must be cut out to be eliminated. If you live somewhere where it's normal (seems strange for 90's cars to me) that cars rot out, just accept it. If yours is the only car on the block rotting out, start rinsing it off more often. If you really must save a 1996 Sunfire (disposable car), look on

If you got rust on a car this new I can only say that the dealer had probably done some re-painting on it when it was still in their posession prior to being purchased by the first buyer.

Mine was spot painted by the dealer I got my car from and that's where I got rust spots forming now.
