How to Replace the Heating Resistor of an Opel Corsa?

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Heater control valve

Before you begin, sit in the front passenger seat of your Opel Corsa. The heating resistor is located under the glove compartment. Start by disconnecting the resistor connector by simply pulling it towards you. Next, unscrew and remove the two small bolts that secure the resistor. Once you have removed these two bolts, the resistor will be free. At this point, to remove it, simply pull it out, and you will have completed the disassembly. To fit the new resistor, repeat these steps in reverse, and the replacement will be complete.
