No, it doesn't. That's what got this whole project going - I realized I had never heard the fan come on after shutting down, the way it always does on our C900. Pulled the low speed relay and jumped the contacts and it didn't come on. Put an ohmeter between the green and white wire at the plugs, and found the resistance way way too high.
Easy to put another resistor in, if you do need one. I mounted mine on a 4" x 1-1/2" piece of 1/8" or so aluminum, to provide a heat sink and make it easier to mount, then use nylon ties to fasten it to the fan housing spoke just above where the old one was.
Oh, I should probably mention, the low speed fan with the 0.2 resistor replacement resistor draws 13 amps, and o high speed a bit over 20.
