Replaced blower fan resistor today without removing dash. Dealer wanted 10 hours labor to replace resistor. Took me two hours, next one could do in hour. 4 of 5 fan screws you can get to without problems. For 5th screw which requires removal of dash, I just pulled fan down and mount broke right off.
1 Answer 1. If I understand the nomenclature correctly, an R plasmid is just any plasmid containing an antibiotic (R)esistance gene (eg. Amp, Kan, Cm, etc.). It's a bit of an outdated name from when people didn't know how exactly the plasmids conferred such resistance.
A plasmid is a short, usually circular, and double-stranded segment of DNA that is found in the cytoplasm separate from the main bacterial chromosome. Plasmids usually contain between 5 and 100 genes that are not required for the survival of the bacteria.
