Hi Folks,

Just thought I'd mention that its not required to buy new "resistors" for burnt out ones in the blower moter speed control system, there is nothing special being used here and a replacment length of fuse wire of approx the same diameter of the burnt out piece will do to replace them.. haveing just replaced the resistor for the slow speed on my Tarago (spacecruiser) I can attest to the fact the the wire innner of a garbage bag tie wound round a small screwdriver to form the right shape and length will do the job without problems, (for the slowest speed)the longer the length of the wire the slower the fan motor will run, I might make a variable unit to replace the entire thing at some later date, using a heavy rheostat or similar...

Anyway regards from a sunny Melbourne Australia

John
