Before you can start, open the bonnet of your Opel Corsa. The fan resistor is located beneath the coolant expansion tank.

Begin by disconnecting the relevant electrical connector. Next, unscrew and remove the screws securing the resistor to its housing.

This will free the resistor itself. Proceed to unclip and remove the resistor, completing the disassembly.

To install the new resistor, simply follow these steps in reverse, and you will have completed the replacement.
