You should be able to post your pics as the site now autosizes them. Give it a shot and lets see what happens. If you have enough pics to kind of show the process that would be great.

You are confusing attachments and offsite hosting.
We don't exactly have unlimited space, so yes size on attachments is limited. However if you want to host offsite from HCW then you can use whatever size and it will be resized down to make it look prettier.
I take it back. 3 and 4 work when the car gets warmed up.
There's a resistor "pack" that is screwed into the top of the blower housing. It's a small black rectangle with a 4 or 5 wire connector plugged into it. The fan speed switch on your dash switches between the different resistances in this resistor pack. If you unplug the connector, and remove the 2 or 3 screws holding it in, it pops out quite easily, and then you'll be able to see if the resistor wires are damaged (probably are). You could try repairing them, but this part is common to all the EFs (and probably others). Just change it.
When I got my Wagon, the speeds were off and 4. And when it was on 4, it was very weak. I stole the resistor pack out of my hatch, and then I had all speeds, but still very weak. I discovered my issue when the time came to remove the AC condensor (or is it the evaporator) from under the dash. It was clogged with dirt and leaves. The air could not blow through. Once I removed it altogether, I had great air pressure, and now could successfully keep the windshield clear in the winter months.
What am I doing wrong on this site? I try to upload a photo, browse to the file, click on "Add the file" and I get the "progress bar" but it just runs and runs and runs and then the original site goes to a white page and I have to cancel and go "back" to get anything I can interact with. The photo is only ~160 KB, I'm on a brand new MacBook.
Question for y'all. Picture the "white enclosure" that houses the heater fan. On the front of this is a plug and connects to some sort of element inside. When I removed mine it looked like the guts of a large incandescent lightbulb (the fillaments) but was all encrusted and broken. What does this do, and is it important? My heater/AC seem to work fine with this thing all mangled. Is it some sort of de-icer?? Any ideas?
I'd attach a photo, but, well, that's not working out so well for me.
It's exactly what I described in the post just above yours. It's the resistor pack that allows different speeds on your blower fan. The grey crap is epoxy coating on the wire filament to help them last. The reason it's all exposed like that is because it gets pretty damned hot, and the way it is mounted inside the blower motor housing, the air rushing aorund in there helps to keep the resistor from burning up.
After driving around all fall and what we've had of winter so far, I finally got around to replacing my blower motor. Picked one up from Autozone for $35ish last week after driving around in 15°F for the past couple of weeks. This past Sunday I went about removing the glove box, kick panel, air duct thing and finally the blower motor housing. Removal of the blower motor required taking out 3 screws for the motor and 1 nut for the fan thingy. Had to stop and tske the family to church and then got busy with other things. I ended up installing everything back undervthe dash the next day during my lunch break.
Easy peasy! That is, if you don't mind contorting your body and bending your arms and fingers in ways they don't normally bend.
Now my sons won't have to dress like we're going on an Arctic expedition whenever they ride with me! And now I won't have to roll my window down on the highway when the windshield fogs up!

pussy...
get a horse !
j/k
congrats man...glad you 'made' it...
no more polar bear tours and such...

LOL!! Eagle, I grew up in Ottawz, Canada so I know what cold is and it doesn't bother me. It's the kids I was more worried about!
But now that I have heat, I've got another issue to deal with now... a long cranking, hard to turn over engine.. but that's for the engine and drivetrain thread.
