It is located under the passenger side dash. Right next to the center column
The resistor is bolted into the evaporator case near the blower motor. It is accessed under the passenger side dashboard. The trim/carpet along the transmission needs to be removed. You can then unplug the connector and remove/replace the resistor.
If I remember correctly it will be located at the bottom of the windshield under the cowl assembly and you will need to remove the wiper arms and the cowl to remove this............
get in the car and ask home depot or werever you got it
The blower motor resistor in a 2004 Saab 9-5 regulates the speed of the blower motor, which controls the airflow from the vehicle's heating and air conditioning system. It accomplishes this by varying the resistance in the electrical circuit, allowing for different fan speeds. When the resistor fails, it can result in the blower motor operating at only one speed or not functioning at all. This component is essential for maintaining comfort within the cabin by enabling the driver to adjust the ventilation system.
To remove the heater blower fan from a 2005 Saab, first, disconnect the negative battery terminal to ensure safety. Then, access the blower motor by removing the glove compartment and any necessary panels to reach the blower assembly. Disconnect the electrical connector from the blower motor, unfasten the screws or bolts holding it in place, and carefully pull out the blower fan. Finally, reverse the process to install the new fan, ensuring all connections are secure.
The resistor pack is located behind the glove compartment within the cabin of the Saab. (older Saabs may have had the resistors in the engine compartment behind the false firewall.) Access involves removing the glove compartment, and then the kick panel under below the blower. There are two types of resistor packs...one appears to be for Saabs with the ACC, automatic climate control, and that pack is screwed to the bottom of the blower motor. The other resistor pack appears to be for Saabs with manual heat/cooling controls ... ( non-ACC system) and it has a number of "fingers" (cooling fins), and is located somewhat behind the cabin blower motor. Held in with a clip, it comes down after removing the electrical connections (three).
It is located on the fan shroud. Look on the side by the battery, go to the fan shroud and look for a small brass cylander. That's it. It should have two or three wires coming out of it. Two wires go to the fan and the single one goes to the switch. This controls your fan speed(two speeds for Saab). Not aware of any after market sellers so you need to go to SAAB dealer for it.
It might be a worn/broken motor mount.
blowing motor going bad blower motor going bad
yes, same engine.
Remove the glove box and its behind that
