Ok first of all I'm not a technical person 
Kindly explain to me in simpler terms if possible. I have some questions that I'll try to accurately lay down for you.
I bought this 2010 Armada SE a couple years back, secondhand, which I honestly don't know why I did because I could have gone for like the Titanium or Platinum or something! But anywayssss, my current dilemma is that there are like missing components that don't let me navigate through my radio and even the front climate.
Ok like I try to restart the radio by actually restarting the car but then it proceeds to show the Nissan logo (signaling the reboot) but IT JUST GOES RIGHT BACK TO THE LAST SCREEN IT SHOWED ever before this whole problem surfaced. Next, there's likely a problem with the blower? Because it always is just on running mode when I'm driving but there is like ABSOLUTELY NO WAY I CAN make it faster or increase/decrease the temp. 
Now I tried so so hard to solve this on my own. I manage to do some band-aid solutions sometimes and get everything back up and running but eventually IT JUST HAPPENS AGAIN!!! Sooooo... if you might know based only on this info ^ because again I'm not too technical... what seems to be the problem? What exactly is the component messing it all up and how can I fix it?
Before heading here I asked around and one of my friends said I need to replace the AV control unit so i checked the manual and it looks like its somewhere at the back of the two 12V outlets, but tbh I'm not sure which number that exactly is? I need to check more. Some people said I need to check the fuse but I did alreadyyy and it's FINE.
Not dirty or anything. Lastly, people suggested I need to take a look into the HVAC blower motor resistor? Based on my research that's probably the easiest to do at this point. I ordered from amazon with the part number VP5NEH-19E624-AA and it's for the 2010-2015 series but im not sure why the one in my car has 5 fins? with the same part number? What...
My question now is, is it ok if I replace it with this one with 4 fins? When I bought it I noticed the tires were a different size than what should be, so it's highly possible the owner before me put another wrong part
Please any input will do!

Ok it's honestly probably my fault because I did not buy the top of the line and it's a 2010 model for Pete's sake. But yeahhh it's pribably the HVAC resistor being problematic for real. I'll do the 4 fin and let you know what happens.
