After you get the trim piece off, there are 4 screws that hold the panel (the
one with the a/c controls) on. I took those out, but the panel wouldn't come
out. The bottom of the panel is held on by 2 brackets even after the screws are
taken out. What's the trick to getting it out without breaking it? Need to
check blower switch and resister. thanks for the help. billy

On some of the early models you have to gently bend the two screw tabs
out of the way to remove the head unit. However since the resistor pack
and the blower fan relay are more readily accessible from their location
under and behind the glove box, it's much easier to check the electrics
there, since if the fan doesn't work at all you'll probably be replacing
the fan motor anyway. After the glove box and underdash panel are out of
the way, you only have to remove the right side trim panel, slide out the
computer and remove the bracket to gain removal access to the fan motor.
