Dial in every fan speed and keep your cabin airflow under control with the Standard Ignition HVAC Blower Motor Resistor RU996. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2008 Volkswagen Lupo, handling the fan-speed control your climate system depends on.
A blower motor resistor sits in the HVAC circuit and provides the stepped resistance that sets each lower blower speed; when it fails, the fan often works on one speed only (commonly high) or stops responding to the speed selector. If a failed resistor is the cause of your missing fan speeds, this replaces it.
Diagnose the cause of a blower-speed problem before replacing, since the switch, wiring, or motor can produce similar symptoms.

Manufacturer part number RU996
This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does this blower motor resistor do?
It provides the stepped resistance that sets the lower blower-motor fan speeds, working with the speed switch and motor to control cabin airflow.
What vehicle does the RU996 fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2008 Volkswagen Lupo. Confirm fitment for your vehicle before ordering.
What are the signs this part may need replacing?
The blower often runs on only one speed (commonly high) or stops responding to the fan-speed selector. Diagnose the cause first, as the switch or wiring can cause similar issues.
What interchange numbers does this part cross-reference?
It replaces RU1685, JA1877, BR895, 377819022A, and 5Z0819022A.
Will replacing the resistor fix my fan-speed problem?
If a failed resistor is the cause, this replaces it. Because the switch, wiring, or blower motor can produce the same symptoms, diagnose the cause before installing.
