Keep control of your blower fan speeds with the Dorman blower motor resistor, part number 973-553, a kit built to replace an overheated or corroded original resistor in the 2005-2011 Ford Crown Victoria and 2005-2011 Mercury Grand Marquis. The resistor manages the current sent to the blower motor, which is how the HVAC system sets each fan speed. This Dorman blower motor resistor kit pairs the resistor with a harness pigtail, so the wiring connection can be renewed along with the resistor.

  • Direct replacement: Directly replaces the original equipment resistor and harness on the listed applications.
  • Resistor and pigtail included: Each kit supplies a resistor plus a harness pigtail, the pieces most repairs call for.
  • OE-like performance: Made to perform like original equipment and designed to bring the HVAC system back to full operation.
  • 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 speed settings but not others, or a blower that stops running. A blower motor, switch or wiring fault can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause first. If the resistor is at fault, this kit replaces it. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes in the Dorman HVAC blower motor resistor kit?

Each 973-553 kit includes a blower motor resistor and a harness pigtail for the wiring connection.

Which vehicles does the Dorman 973-553 fit?

It is listed for the 2005-2011 Ford Crown Victoria and the 2005-2011 Mercury Grand Marquis. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.

What does a blower motor resistor do?

It controls the current that reaches the blower motor. This is how the HVAC system changes fan speed across its settings.

What are signs the blower motor resistor may need replacing?

A blower that works on some speeds but not others, or stops running, can point to a failed resistor. The motor, switch or wiring can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause first.

Why does the kit include a harness pigtail?

Dorman includes the pigtail because most repairs need one. It lets the wiring connection be renewed along with an overheated or corroded resistor.
