Markq 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2007 Hey, I have a new resistor for my E34's heater fan thingy and I cannot find where the heck it should be. I know I have asked this dumb question before, but no matter where I look and what panels I take off I just can't see anything similar!!!!! Anyone have a helpful link with a pic of where it is hidden?? Or have I f'd up and brought the wrong part???? Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonty m50e30 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2007 On my E46 it was an absolute bastard to get to - I got access via the drivers foot well up under the dash towards the centre of the car, had to remove a couple of covers from memory. Not sure if the 34 is the same. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Markq 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2007 Looks so simple in the diagram huh. But alas, I am still searchin. Could it be that mine uses a final stage?? Might have a look over there!!! Or maybe, my car is just unique and doesn;t want to show its resistor!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes there is an exploded diagram of where all the parts are http://www.realoem.com/bmw/select.do?vin=&...ns=M&arch=0 I'll look in my Haynes manual too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heater controls are as you described Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
