Clarification - Grounded one end of voltmeter and the other end I attached to one wire then the other that attaches to the resistor. With the fans on low, one wire read over 12 volts (system voltage) the other read a little less than 9 volts (output voltage after going through the resistor I guess). What I was wondering if different resistors had different output voltages going to the fans on any certain speed. It is apparent the resistor on the car now is not what the book calls for. I think the parts man said it was for a 123 series car. I am looking now at the service DVD but am sure the wiring has never been altered from factory specs. I have had the car since new.
