Dorman - OE Solutions HVAC Blower Motor Resistor Kit P/N:973-433
Get your climate-control fan speeds back under control with the Dorman - OE Solutions HVAC Blower Motor Resistor Kit 973-401. A blower motor resistor regulates the current sent to the blower motor so the fan can run at each selectable speed; when the original overheats or corrodes, one or more fan speeds can stop working. This kit installs as a direct-fit replacement across a broad range of GM vehicles, including the 2008-2020 Buick Enclave, 2007-2020 Cadillac Escalade, 2007-2017 Chevrolet Equinox, 2009-2020 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2008-2020 GMC Acadia — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 65 applications and the front/rear position cataloged for each.
