I'm getting very close to completing my wiring project and found this voltage reducer in my harness box with other wiring items. Not positive, but I think it's for the 6v heater fan? I'm not sure what the amp rating is on the stock motor. I do have the setup with a second motor for the defroster. I'm not connecting those right now, but would like to down the road. Do I need two separate voltage reducers - one for each motor? Do I need multiple reducers for each?
FYI - I did add a different type of reducer for the fuel gauge.

Four of these resistors (6 ohm) wired in parallel will do the same thing as the "voltage reducer" in your pic- - - -and their 100 watt rating will be at least as durable as the one you have. They will give a total of 1.5 Ohms of resistance, and can handle up to 400 watts of load since there are four paths for the current to flow.
