good god no it normally takes the whold day if you have done alot as i have then aout 4 hours as the whols dash has to come out to get to it and please refer the dealer to the actis solution they will know what you mean what happenes is the motor starts to deteriate and develops a high resistance wich burns out the resistor and wireing and they should replace the fan and resistor and the wireing. hte modified resistor and wiring has an additional circuite to alow for the raised resistance in the motor but unless your really really lucky if you dont replace the motor the wireing will burn out in about a year again in my experience.... and giving you falce ecconamy.... its bad news but its not an easy job need to think gynocolagist kind of job
