Meir:

I found a really simple DIY at http://www.renntech.org/forums/tutorials/article/40-removing-and-installing-ballast-resistor-for-the-radiator-fan-motor/. Essentially, it says to:
  1. From underneath, unclip the old resistor
  2. Cut the wires about 1.5" from the old resistor
  3. Do the same with the new resistor
  4. Slide heat shrink over the old wire and the splice the new resistor to the old harness using crimp connectors
  5. slide heat shrink over the new splice and shrink using a heat gun
  6. clip the new resistor into the bracket

This was for a 996. I'll give it a look and see if this as easy as it sounds. If not, I'll either have to pull the liner or fender off and replace the resistor with its harness.
