Today, we will learn how to remove and replace the cabin fan resistor on the Volkswagen Golf. First, get into the vehicle and begin by removing the plastic side panel located at the bottom on the passenger side; this will give you access to the cabin fan motor, where you will disconnect the electrical connector from the fan resistor to remove it, as shown in the video.

At this point, install the new cabin fan resistor, ensuring the various fan speeds function correctly!
