Removing the cabin fan on a Ford Focus? Remove the glove compartment to access the part to be removed. Take out the glove compartment located in the dashboard, and using a screwdriver, unscrew the cover where the resistor is located.

Refit the cover and the glove compartment. Check the correct installation of the fitted parts.

At the end of the installation, check if the fan works.
