Blower Motor Resistor Harness melted, how to replace? (Repaired!)
So i went to replace my blower motor resistor and the plug coming off the harness that actually plugs into the blower motor resistor was fried and melted into the old part.
How can i replace the harness now? I can't find the part online, do i HAVE to pull one from a junkyard Taurus and snip the wires then do the electrical tape + wire nuts?
The part itself was a little rusty but i am guessing this is the cause of the failure to the blower motor resistor and not just the part failing itself. Also the Duralast part IS a Motorcraft part. So they must get them from Ford since its such a unique part.

I have soldered on a "new" piece from a junkyard pull, it works great again.
