Product Details and Specifications

The Dorman 973-054 blower motor resistor is built to meet the exact requirements of Jeep Wrangler HVAC systems. It features two bolt holes for stable installation and a rectangular female connector designed to fit seamlessly with the vehicle’s wiring. The resistor has three male blade terminals, ensuring a secure and efficient electrical connection.

Install the new resistor by reversing the removal steps, making sure the connector is fully seated and the resistor is securely mounted.
