It's not a pigtail, it's a resistor just to the left of the blower motor in
the duct. Has two screws holding it in and about 4 wires on it. If you
remove it you may see a bunch of burnt up insulation a dead give away that
it's bad.

It's a known problem with those cars and Ford may still have a customer
satisfaction program on it. Call your dealer with the VIN number to check.
