I believe this is the same vehicle as the Toyota Tarago from Australia.
In the Tarago you access the resistor from within the engine compartment. To do this on the 2.4 petrol model, you need to follow these steps.
NOTE: you may need to unmount the radiator overflow bottle and gently move it far enough aside to get at the rest of the bits.
1. lift the bonnet/hood and remove the blower intake (4 screws hold it in)
2. remove the top half of the radiator fan shroud (4 screws - 2 top, 2 half way down) you may need to turn it a little as you pull it out and also the fan a little to give enough room to do it
3. Under the blower there is a cover retained by 3 screws underneath, (one each side at the rear and one at the front right of the cover.) There is also a 10mm bolt holding it on the right hand side.
4. After removing this cover you will see a rectangular plate with a plug and two screws underneath at the back.
5 Unclip the plug and undo the two screws.
6 Remove this plate and the resistor block is mounted to the other side of it.
Reassembly is a reverse of the removal.

Bad resistor at the blower motor? Bad blower motor switch?
Your truck has both. the resistor is between the switch & blower.thje resistor controls the blower speed
There is a Blower Motor Resistor Pack. Either the blower motor speed control switch itself is defective or the Resistor Pack is bad.
Defective blower motor, blower motor resistor pack, or blower motor speed control switch.
the switch, or the blower motor resistor, or blower motor usually it the last two at one time
If you are saying the blower motor will not work, then check the fuse. If the fuse is not blown, then it is possibly a defective Blower Motor Resistor Pack, blower motor, or blower motor speed control switch, in that order.If you are saying the blower motor will not work, then check the fuse. If the fuse is not blown, then it is possibly a defective Blower Motor Resistor Pack, blower motor, or blower motor speed control switch, in that order.
The blower motor speed resistor is burned out. You can replace only the resistor but the resistor probably burned out because the blower motor is going bad. If you want to fix it for good, replace both the blower motor and blower motor speed resistor.
Blower motor fuse is blown. Blower motor resistor burned out. Blower motor switch bad. Blower motor bad.
Check to see if you are getting power to blower motor - if so replace blower motor If not check fuse, switch, resistor pack.
replace the blower motor switch
Heater motor switch and or the connection at the switch is melted. Also check connections at the blower motor and blower motor resistor for melt down damage.
