How to Replace the Cabin Fan Resistor on a Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 6, MK 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Blower motor

If the cabin ventilation fan does not activate or only works at maximum speed despite adjusting the speed setting, the resistor controlling the fan motor speed is likely damaged. Replacing this resistor is straightforward, and the part is easy to obtain. The resistor is located near the cabin fan motor, directly behind the central console of the dashboard. You can access it easily from the passenger side by removing the side cover of the tunnel.
