Address inconsistent cabin airflow with the Dorman hvac blower motor resistor kit 973-401, a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of GM cars, SUVs and trucks. This kit ships with the resistor plus a harness pigtail to replace an overheated or corroded original-equipment resistor, and it covers front and rear blower positions depending on the application.

  • Complete kit: includes a resistor and harness pigtail, which is essential for most repairs.
  • Direct replacement: made to install like the original equipment on the listed vehicle years, makes and models.
  • Restores functionality: built to perform like the factory unit so, if a failed resistor is the cause, it helps return full HVAC blower operation.
  • Trustworthy quality: backed by a team of engineers and quality specialists in the USA.

A blower motor resistor sets the fan speed for the HVAC system; when it fails you often lose one or more speeds while others still work. This kit fits many vehicles, among them the 2008-2020 Buick Enclave, 2011-2018 Chevrolet Cruze and 2007-2014 Chevrolet Tahoe — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
