How to Replace the Cabin Fan Resistor in a Fiat Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 3, Punto EVO, 199, Grandepunto - Years 2005-2018
Part: Blower motor

To replace the cabin fan in a Fiat Punto, you need to completely detach the carpet located under the glove compartment on the passenger side. Once the carpet is removed, you can locate the fan and remove it from its housing by disconnecting the connectors and unscrewing the fixing screws. The resistor will be directly connected to the fan and can be disconnected, replacing it with a new spare part. After replacement, remount the fan, ensuring it works correctly.
