According to the wiring diagram, the fan resistor is used for post-shutdown cooling of the engine. When the fan is running with the engine on then the fan runs at a high speed. When the fan is running with the engine off then the fan runs at a lesser speed. The resistor drops the voltage to the fan in the engine-off cooling circuit.

Replace it if the fan does not run when the thermoswitch kicks the fans on and the engine is off. I don't believe replacing this is a matter of course when you change the thermo switch.
