Howdy all.

I have a 2002 I35, and I need to replace the blower motor and resistor on my car. I read through some posts and it seems as if wiring needs to be modified if you use one from auto zone.

Has anyone used one of these?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ories

It says direct replacement, not sure what the one from auto zone looks like. I don't mind taking my car apart, but don't want to have to re-wire anything.

This is the only new resistor I can seem to find, but my concern is that it looks different from the used resistor I found on ebay.

Any advice or direction would be appreciated.

Thanks!Zach

Welcome to NICO!

If I were you, I would pull your resistor and have that eBay seller shoot you some more pics. If it looks right, compare prices for a new one from Joe at Infiniti of Scottsdale (IOS). His number is 1.888.344.6346.

Same goes for the motor.

Thanks for the welcome, and hello there neighbor

When you say Infiniti of Scottsdale - confused why I would contact a dealer in Arizona; does he give great deals on parts or something?

Any good links or know where I could find the service manual for download?

Thanks!

I have a hook up at Harper Infiniti in Knoxville and most of the time IOS is less expensive; even with shipping. So, yeah that's why I say IOS.

Here are two links for you:

1 - FSM Main Listing http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/

2 - FSM 2002 I35 http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/i35/2002/

And I didn't even realize you were from TN. Sorry about that. There are a few events fairly close each year. We'll definitely have to keep in touch!
