Bring back every fan speed on your climate control with the Standard Ignition HVAC Blower Motor Resistor RU-728. This blower motor resistor drops into the listed applications as a direct-fit replacement: 2006-2011 Honda Civic, 2007-2012 Acura RDX, 2007-2011 Honda CR-V, 2008-2012 Honda Accord, 2009-2014 Acura TSX, and 2012-2015 Honda Crosstour (All engines).
- Speed control: supplies the resistance steps that set the blower motor's lower and intermediate fan speeds.
- Circuit replacement: designed to replace the original blower motor resistor on the listed vehicles.
- Plug-in service part: serviced as a stand-alone resistor for the HVAC blower circuit.
An HVAC blower motor resistor sits in the blower circuit and reduces voltage to the motor so the fan can run at low and mid settings; the highest speed typically bypasses the resistor and runs the motor at full voltage. Signs the resistor may need replacing include a blower that works only on the highest speed while the lower speeds are dead, or intermittent fan operation. Those symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the circuit first. If a failed resistor is the cause, this replaces it.
Manufacturer part number RU-728.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this blower motor resistor do?
It provides resistance in the HVAC blower circuit to reduce voltage to the motor, letting the fan run at low and mid speeds while the highest setting usually runs the motor at full voltage.
Which vehicles does the RU-728 fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2011 Honda Civic, 2007-2012 Acura RDX, 2007-2011 Honda CR-V, 2008-2012 Honda Accord, 2009-2014 Acura TSX, and 2012-2015 Honda Crosstour (All engines).
My fan only works on high — is this the problem?
Possibly. A blower stuck on high with dead low and mid speeds is a common sign of a failed resistor, but diagnose the circuit before replacing to confirm the resistor is the cause.
Is any wiring or hardware included?
The facts don't list included hardware. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct connectors or fasteners and whether they may be reused.
What is the manufacturer part number?
The manufacturer part number is RU-728.
