Default 2008 Caravan blower resistor location

Where is the resistor/fuse located for the front blower on a 2008 Grand Caravan?? The blower stopped suddenly. The rear blower still works.

Thanks,
Kevin

LHD model shown. RHD model similar.
1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2. If equipped, remove the silencer from below the passenger side of the instrument panel.
3. Disconnect the wire harness connector (2) from the blower motor resistor (3).
4. Remove the two screws (4) that secure the blower motor resistor to the front HVAC housing (1).
5. Disengage the retaining tabs (5) that secure the blower motor resistor to the HVAC housing and remove the resistor.

thanks! once i pulled the resistor/fuse out i saw that the soldered fuse was open. by holding the fuse back in place i was able to use a cheap solder iron to reconnect it in just a couple of minutes. the cheapest i found the replacement part was over $80 and didnt even ask how much the dealership would charge! AGAIN THANKS TO ALL!
