Help your heating and cooling fan run at the speed you select with this Dorman blower motor resistor, part number 973-011 from the Dorman - OE Solutions line. It regulates the current sent to the blower motor to set its fan speeds. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1987-1996 Ford F-150, 1987-1996 Ford F-250 and 1991-1994 Ford Explorer, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details. It is listed for front and rear positions.

If a burnt-out resistor is why your fan runs on only one speed or not at all, this unit replaces it. Dorman designed it to operate and perform like the factory resistor on the listed vehicles.

  • Direct replacement: Built to fit and function like the original part on the listed applications.
  • Addresses speed problems: Intended to correct a blower that works on only one speed, or not at all, when the old resistor has failed.
  • Thoroughly tested: Examined and validated to operate safely and effectively.
  • Engineering support: Backed by a team of engineers and inspectors based in the United States.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the right Ford F-150 blower motor resistor for my truck?

It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1987-1996 Ford F-150 and the 1987-1996 Ford F-250. The Buyer's Guide tab lists every vehicle it fits.

Will it work as a Ford Explorer blower motor resistor?

Yes. It is listed for the 1991-1994 Ford Explorer, and the Buyer's Guide tab shows the other vehicles it fits.

What does an HVAC blower motor resistor do?

It regulates the current sent to the blower motor so the fan can run at different speeds for heating, cooling and ventilation.

What are signs the blower motor resistor may need replacing?

Common signs are a fan that runs on only one speed, works on some settings but not others, or does not run at all. Diagnose the cause first, because a switch, motor or wiring fault can cause similar symptoms.

Has this resistor been tested?

Yes. Dorman examines and validates it to operate safely and effectively, and it is backed by a team of engineers and inspectors in the United States.
