The purpose for changing the resistor is because the rear fan is constantly blowing, even if everything in the AC is off. It goes from one speed to another by itself with the AC off. With the engine turned off, it continues to blow, and of course it kills the battery. I have to disconnect the battery in order to be able to use the car the next time. My Envoy is the one with the third seat row.
Doesn't have a resistor. It has a blower motor control processor. When they go bad, the blower motor defaults to always on (go figure that logic). Pull the AUX blower motor fuse until you can get a replacement. The processor is located back by the rear blower motor.
