Designed to help bring back variable fan-speed control for your heater and A/C, the Standard Ignition Blower Motor Resistor, part number RU-62, supplies the resistance the blower motor circuit needs to run at its lower speed settings. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1982-1985 Chevrolet Impala, 1980-1983 Chevrolet Malibu and 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro, and is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications in the front position.
This hvac blower motor resistor sits in the blower motor circuit, and the fan speed you select determines how much resistance the current passes through. Signs this part may need replacing include a blower that runs only on its highest setting or skips certain speeds. Because a faulty switch, wiring or the motor itself can cause similar symptoms, diagnose the circuit before replacing. If a failed resistor is the cause, RU-62 replaces it. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of fitting vehicles.

Does RU-62 work as a blower motor resistor for a 1982-1985 Chevy Impala?
Yes, it is listed for the 1982-1985 Chevrolet Impala. It also fits many other vehicles, so check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm your exact model.
Is this the right blower motor resistor for a 1980-1983 Chevrolet Malibu?
RU-62 is listed for the 1980-1983 Chevrolet Malibu and the 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro. The "Vehicles it fits" section lists every vehicle it fits.
What does a blower motor resistor do?
It adds resistance to the blower motor circuit so the fan can run at its lower speed settings. This gives you variable speed control for the heater and A/C.
What are signs the blower motor resistor may need replacing?
Common signs include a fan that works only on high or skips some speeds. A switch, wiring or the motor can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the circuit first.
Why does Standard Ignition use copper connectors on this resistor?
Standard Ignition uses premium copper electrical connectors for more precise resistance values. These connectors are intended to improve resistor performance and support a longer part life.
