96 Passat Heater Blower resistor pack
 
Does anyone know exactly where, under the dash, this part is located?

about 4 inches left of the blower fan. If it needs the resistor replaced
then the fan also needs replaced.

I agree. The usual cause of a resistor going is increased power
required by the motor that is worn and is dragging.

I have to replace the heater motor in my car...I have the glove box
out...but now I need to get the knee guard out. Do I have to remove the
whole dashboard to do it? Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks for that advice. I did look in that area and it wasn't visible. Is
it hidden? I'll take another look. I suspect that a clogged pollen filter
may have placed extra load on the motor. It's obviously the original
filter. (60k miles).
