Standard Ignition RU-513 rear blower motor resistor for the 2003-2005 Volvo XC90 sets the blower motor's fan speeds for the heater and A/C. It is designed specifically for Volvo applications.
- Copper alloy conductors for conductivity with minimal resistive losses
- Copper electrical connectors for more precise resistance values and longer part life
- Helps restore variable speed control of the A/C and heater blower motor
- Extensive testing at the maker's facility for correct performance and durability
Quick facts
- Part: Standard Ignition RU-513 blower motor resistor
- Also called: HVAC blower motor resistor
- Fits: 2003-2005 Volvo XC90
- Position: Rear
- Condition: New
A blower that skips speeds, sticks on one speed or does not run at all can be a sign the HVAC blower motor resistor has worn out. A weak blower motor, a blown fuse or a damaged connector can also be behind those signs, so find the cause before buying.
Fits
It fits the 2003-2005 Volvo XC90. That vehicle takes one resistor, at the rear, and this listing is one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the RU-513 a blower motor resistor replacement for the 2003-2005 Volvo XC90?
Yes. Standard Ignition RU-513 is a rear blower motor resistor for the 2003-2005 Volvo XC90, and that vehicle takes one.
Does the RU-513 resistor come with a wiring harness or screws?
No. Standard Ignition RU-513 comes as the resistor alone. The wiring harness, mounting hardware and mounting bracket are not included.
How many fan speeds does this rear resistor cover?
This resistor covers 3-5 speeds. It has five male blade terminals and a rectangular female connector with one cavity.
My blower works on only some speeds. Can a blower motor resistor be involved?
Yes, it can. This part sets the blower's speed steps, so missing speeds or a fan that will not change speed can be signs it is involved.
What are the conductors and connectors made of on the Standard Ignition RU-513?
The conductors are a copper alloy and the electrical connectors are copper. The connectors are intended to give more precise resistance values and a longer part life.
