Can someone please tell me where to find the resistors so that they can be checked for replacement first thing in the morning?
Along with any other information that would make getting one from the dealership and installing it any easier. Thanks!

No offense, but anyone having issues of their own, make your own topic so that mine still has a purpose....I need an answer to my last question and wont get it with 100 other questions being added on top.

"Eric, I also have a non functioning driver side motor. Two questions:
1. Was the motor "cooked" or just "frozen" due to lack of lubrication.
2. Is there a good write-up available for removing this motor other than that found in the Porsche Manual. Any helpful hints for doing the job? Thanks."
For 1, the motor had a black dusty buildup that looks like it was the bearing disintegrating. The motor is a piece of junk, very similar design to the rear blower motor.
For 2, there are a few very good writeups for replacing the front blower motors, take a look at:

PC964, which resistors are you looking for? The rear blower resistor is in the air tube attached to the rear blower on the engine. In front there is a plate bolted to the firewall which helps control the speed for the front blower motors.... is that what you are referring to?
For the no AC when stopped, I feel its an issue with the front blowers.... when the car is moving, you get air forced in from outside, when you stop, no flow........

From your other issues of air not blowing to the windscreen on one side, I'd suspect that you've got problems with your front servos, if both air circulation fans are functioning.
"Small" leaks mean loss of refrigerant - I find this a/c system very intolerant of even small deficiencies. Sounds like you need a good a/c guy who knows these systems...

Thanks a ton both of you
The A/C blows at all times the same speed, however it is only cold when I am driving up to speed.
I will check both of the resistors, the shop wants $200 to replace one, I figure it would be easy enough to do it myself
