I had the resistor block on my 89 Dakota go a number of years ago. When I
stopped at the local dealer for the part I just mentioned what I needed and he
reached under the counter and handed me a new one. Didn't have to look it up or
go out back to get one!! So I gues it's not an uncommon part to fail. As I
recall it was like $8.

BTW, on the 89 it mounted through the firewall into the cowl area. Took about 1
minute to change.
