Dorman 973-062 HVAC Blower Motor Resistor Kit

This HVAC blower motor resistor kit replaces an overheated or corroded original equipment resistor on select Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles with Automatic Temperature Control (ATC). It includes the resistor and harness pigtail needed to restore proper blower motor speed control in applications such as the Ford F-150, Ford Expedition, and Lincoln Navigator.

Key Features

• Direct replacement HVAC blower motor resistor kit for ATC-equipped vehicles
• Includes a resistor and harness pigtail for connector repair
• Blade-style terminals with male connector and male terminal design
• 7.25-inch wiring harness length
• 3-wire harness with 1 connector and 2/3 terminal configuration
• Package contents: 1 blower motor resistor, 1 harness, and 3 butt connectors
• Cross-reference part number: F3LY19E624A

Detailed Description

Dorman 973-062 is an HVAC electrical connector repair solution for vehicles that use Automatic Temperature Control. It is built to replace a damaged OE blower motor resistor assembly when heat damage or corrosion has affected blower fan operation. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286) for the same application. Common fitment includes 1997-2003 Ford F-150, 1997-2002 Ford Expedition, 1998-2002 Lincoln Navigator, and 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, along with other listed Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury applications. Use Dorman 973-062 when servicing blower speed control on ATC-equipped trucks and SUVs, including Ford F-150 Heritage and Lincoln Blackwood applications.

What It Helps Fix

• Blower motor only working on certain speeds
• No cabin airflow from the HVAC vents
• Intermittent fan operation caused by heat-damaged resistor terminals
• Corroded or burned blower resistor connector wiring
• Electrical resistance issues in the HVAC blower circuit

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle uses Automatic Temperature Control before ordering. Inspect the blower motor connector, resistor connector, and surrounding wiring for heat damage before installation. The harness pigtail and butt connectors support connector repair during replacement. Confirm terminal style and harness routing against the original part before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

Dorman supplies this resistor kit as a replacement for the original equipment part on the listed Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles. It is engineered to address common failure points found in overheated or corroded HVAC resistor circuits and to restore blower motor speed control on the specified applications.
