Dig out the resistor pack today from the blower after hanging upside

it looks welded on...can I just solder the new one on ? ....


Nope, solder melts at lower than that temp and you
will kill the thermal fuse if you try brazing it on or using
a high temp solder.

OK I will try some mechanical method.....
