It's easier than it looks on paper. I removed and replaced it in <5 minutes. My resistor pack is bright Ford blue.
You will need:
A. The new resistor pack.
B. An 8mm socket and suitable handle (one of those flexible ones did the trick).
C. A flashlight.
D. Opposable thumbs (should be standard issue on the higher primates).
Step by step:
1. Open the glovebox, and empty it.
2. Squeeze the sides of the glovebox and drop it down.
3. Squeeze the tab on the connector to the resistor pack (hidden in the pic below, it's on the left).
4. Remove the 8mm hex-head screw holding the resistor pack. Once loosened, it can be unscrewed by hand (don't drop the screw!).
5. Lift the resistor pack from the bottom, it swings up and out.
Installation is the reverse of removal. Don't overtighten that screw!
Let us know if this fixes your Focus!
I see, thanks for the help. I can't go without A/C, it's Florida. Too bad I have to wait for Monday morning to order the part, pretty sure I have to wait until Tuesday for the part to get through.
