heating fan cut out on my gf's scenic so replaced the resistor then found that the fan itself had died (and taken the replacement resistor with it :~( )


Bought a second had fan that worked (12v battery test) and

got a second hand resistor from ebay looks identical but.....

the replacement resistor came with a connector (luckily) that has extra cables ( I think its the modified resistor but I haven't got the modified loom

how do I wire it up so that I can use my heater please

below is a list of the wires I have on the loom and on the resistor connector
