How to Replace the Heating Resistor in 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 at the bottom, beneath the glove compartment. Start by disconnecting the resistor plug by simply pulling it out. Next, unscrew the two small bolts that secure the resistor. Once you have unscrewed 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 install the new resistor, repeat these few instructions in reverse, and you will have completed the replacement.
