Four Seasons HVAC Blower Motor Resistor P/N:20355
Help the front heater and A/C blower run at each speed you select with the Four Seasons HVAC Blower Motor Resistor / Switch, part number 20158. The catalog lists it under both names, and this 4Runner switch is a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
A blower motor resistor works with the fan speed control. It lowers the voltage sent to the blower motor, which provides the reduced fan speeds. Four Seasons engineers and tests its products with trouble-free operation in mind.
This part may need replacing if the blower runs only on high, if one or more fan speeds no longer work, or if there is no airflow on the lower settings. A failed fan switch, damaged wiring or a worn blower motor can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the circuit first. If the resistor is the cause, this unit replaces it.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does a blower motor resistor do?
It works with the fan speed control and lowers the voltage reaching the blower motor. That provides the reduced fan speeds for the front heater and A/C system.
Will this fit my 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner?
Yes. Four Seasons 20158 is a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
What are signs of a failing blower motor resistor?
Common signs are a blower that runs only on high or fan speeds that stop working. A bad switch, wiring or motor can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the circuit first.
