Replace an overheated or corroded blower resistor and its wiring pigtail in one step with the Dorman hvac blower motor resistor kit, part number 973-504, which supplies a new resistor together with a harness pigtail. It fits many Hyundai models, among them the 2001-2006 Hyundai Elantra, 2005 Hyundai Sonata and 2005-2009 Hyundai Tucson. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.
The blower motor resistor sets the fan speeds of the heating and air conditioning system by changing the current sent to the blower motor. If a failed resistor is why your fan works on only some settings, this Dorman blower motor resistor kit is designed to replace it.
- Direct replacement: built to directly replace the original equipment resistor and harness on the listed applications.
- Complete kit: each kit contains a resistor and a harness pigtail, which Dorman considers essential for most repairs.
- OE-like performance: made to perform like the original equipment, helping return the HVAC blower to normal operation when the resistor is at fault.
- Engineering support: backed by Dorman's team of engineers and quality specialists in the USA.
Signs this part may need replacing include a blower that runs on some speeds but not others, or only on the highest setting. Switches, wiring and the blower motor can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing the resistor.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a blower motor resistor do?
It sets the blower fan speeds by changing the current delivered to the blower motor, so the heating and A/C system can run the fan at its different speed settings.
What comes in the kit?
Each kit includes a blower motor resistor and a harness pigtail. Dorman considers the pigtail essential for most repairs.
What are signs the blower motor resistor may need replacing?
Common signs include a blower that runs on some fan speeds but not others, or only on the highest setting. Diagnose the cause first, because switches, wiring or the motor can cause similar symptoms.
Does it fit my 2005-2009 Hyundai Tucson?
Yes. It is listed for the 2005-2009 Hyundai Tucson, as well as the 2001-2006 Hyundai Elantra and 2005 Hyundai Sonata. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm your exact vehicle.
Is this a direct replacement for the original resistor?
Yes. Dorman states that it directly replaces the original equipment on the listed applications and is made to perform like the original part.
