Pic attached. Resistor is in the bottom of housing behind motor which has been removed here. Early models have a smaller resistor block than later models and differ. Early models have exposed wires and later models have then enclosed in a ceramic block.

Open wire-wound resistors - yeeeeeuk! No wonder they changed the design.

Yep. Not good. Unfortunately the newer ceramic encased type is larger than the open type and will not fit. Only option is find a good used one or new from Toyota.
