Smile blower motor not working

I was using the AC today, parked the LR at home and left it running for a bit, When I got in, the blower had quit. I tried heat and AC and all the settings. I looked at the fuses and found that everything ok I did smell a weird smell when driving but assumed it was something that was spilled earlier, need help please

oh I know what that is. You will need a new blower motor resistor. Do not turn it on again, look underneath the passenger side, its possible it melted the relay and the connector as well. If that is the case you will need a new harness. Not the entire body harness just the section of it.

take a philips screwdriver and take off the screws underneath where the puddle lamp is on under the passenger side dashboard. From there you should see the resistor or something smoking.

and no don't use it. If its smoking its already beginning to melt stuff.

How do you get to the resistor? it looks like you have to remove the fascia underneath the passenger side, along with everything else just to get a screwdriver to fit to remove the resistor.

Do you have contact email I can reach you directly?
