Help your cabin fan run at the speed you select with this Dorman blower motor resistor, part number 973-019, a direct replacement for the front heating and air conditioning blower circuit. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1996-2000 Dodge Grand Caravan, 1996-2000 Chrysler Town & Country and 1996-2000 Dodge Caravan. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.

The resistor controls how much current reaches the blower motor, which is how the lower fan settings are produced. When it burns out, the fan may stick on one speed or stop blowing altogether. If a failed resistor is the cause, this unit replaces it, and it is designed to operate and perform like the factory unit. If you need a Grand Caravan blower motor resistor for a 1996-2000 model, that van is one of the listed applications.

  • Direct replacement: Built to match the original resistor's fit, function and performance on the listed applications.
  • Addresses fan-speed faults: Intended for a blower that runs on only one speed or not at all when the resistor is to blame.
  • Thoroughly tested: Examined and validated to perform safely and effectively.
  • Engineering support: Backed by Dorman's team of engineers and inspectors in the United States.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this Dorman HVAC blower motor resistor do?

It controls the current that reaches the front blower motor. This gives the fan its different speed settings for heating and air conditioning.

Will this work as a Dodge Caravan blower motor resistor for my 1996-2000 van?

Yes. The 1996-2000 Dodge Caravan is a listed application, along with the 1996-2000 Dodge Grand Caravan and the 1996-2000 Chrysler Town & Country. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your vehicle.

What are signs the blower motor resistor may need replacing?

A fan that runs on only one speed, or not at all, can point to a burnt-out resistor. The switch, motor or wiring can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the problem before replacing parts.

Is it a direct replacement for the original part?

Yes. Dorman designed it as a direct replacement that matches the original part's fit, function and performance on the listed applications.

How is it installed?

It goes in place of the original resistor, following the vehicle's service procedure. Disconnect the battery first, and inspect the connector and wiring for heat damage.
