Consumer Description

Resistor and resistor harness for HVAC continuously fail. About to be on fourth repair as they continue to short out and begin to melt, almost catching fire. Confirmed by dealer previously that it had shorted it out and melted the wiring harness to the resistor. Only symptom prior to failure is smelling hot and then it abruptly shorts out and shuts off and produces small bit of smoke.
