I take it car blower resistor packs are cooled by the airflow of the

Unlikely they use resistor packs anymore.

my Peugeot 505, early 1980s vintage , used an OCR 35. I suspect the

ITYM OC35?


PNP power transistors that would do a few amps when bolted to the

I'd hope the world has moved on from them. ;-)
