·After taking apart the dash and tracing the wire from the fan switch under the glove box and out onto the passenger kick board I found the resistor block... It's against the firewall at the passenger's feet directly behind the glove box (it's white).
All one has to do is un-screw one screw and pull the old block out and put in a new one ($12 at the dealer). I was told (from various sources) that the blocks go bad fairly often because they have a ceramic coating on it.. mine was really cracked and brittle. The crappy thing is this happened at 38,000 miles.
Another crappy thing about this is that once I found where it was it only took me a few minutes to swap the part... the dealer was going to charge me about $100 to do this.
Hope this helps, I know a few people said they were having this problem...
