2012 CM S ALL4 Blower Motor Resistor

I'm new to Minis - bought mine in May almost out of warranty. Of course, now that warranty is up, the interior blower only works on high. It sounds to me (while very inexperienced) like it may be the blower resistor. Hubby is kinda handy, so I'm wondering


1. how hard is it to DIY and where can I find a pic or video and

2. what is the exact name/number of the part?


Will take to dealer as a last resort.

Having a Bentley manual is good if you DIY. Using realoem.com for part id is also recommended.

I had mine go on my Paceman - had the same issue as you. The blower resistor is accessible from the drivers side down behind the side panel to the right of the gas pedal. Very easy to get too and remove. No special tools are required.

Thanks! That's where we thought it might be - how much was the part? Like 35 (fingers crossed...)
