What can fail
Water enters the windshield cowl area where the heater blower motor resistor block sits. Moisture corrodes the resistor terminals, increasing electrical resistance and causing overheating that could start a fire in the cowl.
What the fix does
The blower motor resistor block will be replaced, the cowl will be sealed with mastic to prevent water entry, and any damaged wiring connectors will be replaced.
