Standard Ignition HVAC Blower Motor Resistor P/N:RU-883
Get your fan speeds back with the Standard Ignition Blower Motor Resistor RU-273, a direct-fit 2001-2003 Toyota Highlander blower motor resistor. This resistor steps down current to the HVAC blower motor so the fan runs at each selectable speed; if a failed original is why your blower only works on one setting or has dead speeds, this replaces it.
Diagnose the cause of a blower issue before replacing, since a stuck or dead fan can also stem from the switch, motor, or wiring.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does the RU-273 blower motor resistor do?
It steps down current to the HVAC blower motor so the fan runs at each selectable speed, handling A/C and heater blower motor variable speed control.
Does this fit my 2001-2003 Toyota Highlander?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2003 Toyota Highlander. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.
Why does my blower only run on high speed?
A failed resistor commonly leaves the blower working on one speed only. If the original resistor is the cause, this RU-273 replaces it; diagnose first, as the switch or wiring can also be at fault.
What connectors does the RU-273 use?
It uses premium copper electrical connectors for more precise resistance values, which helps improve resistor performance and part life.
Which part numbers does this resistor replace?
It interchanges with RU973, JA1344, BR183, 2468103490 and 8713848020.
