[s-cars]Problem with electric radiator fan found WAS: Cooling fan resistor pack

[Ivan Demkovitch]

Folks,

I found problem in a circuit. This was failed connector near IC
Blue connector with Audi number 813 972 641/3 was fried on one side and need
to be repaired.
I shorted Fuse and was able to start fan by twisting that thing..

I realize there is a lot of juice going thru that wire and little hesitant
on what to do.
Is this part above just connector or it has fuse or resistor built in? It
has 2 inch long body on one side.

Should I go ahead and order $$ replacement from dealership or I can just buy
30A Fuse from Autozone?
What kind of connection should be there? Can I perhaps just use butt
connector with heat shrink? Is there special 
Wire grade should be used?

Thanks,
Ivan
