<div style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; COLOR: #000000; FONT-SIZE: 24px"><DIV><FONT size=2 face=Tahoma>Hi Volks;</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT size=2 face=Tahoma>While replacing my fan resistor, I noticed the resistor was mounted a bit off to the drivers side of the vehicle, in a puddle of water. There is a "pan" of sorts caused by the body structure of the headlight mounting area, and since it has been raining for a while, water collected there. Right where the resistor is mounted. Is this normal? It seems to me that mounting an electrical component where it may sit in water is unwise. Maybe the mount was moved by a PO. There is an inch or two of weld or some built up material right behind the headlight. Is this the original spot for the resistor? Inquiring minds want to know.</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT size=2 face=Tahoma>BTW, who's going over to Lars Anderson's auto museum on Sunday for the Transporterfest? Anyone camping in Salem the night before?</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT size=2 face=Tahoma></FONT> </DIV><DIV><FONT size=2 face=Tahoma>Dave B.</FONT></DIV></div>
