smelly fan holden tr astra?

My fan smelly like something burning. fan only works on high, could this be resistor block if so where do i find it?
Michael, January 2007
Almost certainly is the resistor block. The reason that the fan is working only on high is that the resistor block is bypassed when the fan is on high - the burning smell is probably the resistor block dying. The resistor block itself would be mounted somewhere in the fan duct itself (for cooling as it gets hot when in use) and it would clip in from the outside. Can't speak for a TR but for a TS it's behind the glovebox at the top of the duct adjacent the fan itself...

Good Luck.
