Common Issues This Part Can Help Resolve
- Blower motor works on only one speed
- Intermittent HVAC fan operation
- No cabin airflow from the blower motor on certain speed settings
- Heat-damaged or corroded resistor connector
- Electrical resistance problems in the blower motor circuit
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify connector style, terminal count, and harness length before installation. Inspect the blower motor connector and surrounding wiring for heat damage or corrosion, and repair any damaged terminals before fitting the new resistor. Confirm vehicle application by year and model: Fits 2002-2006 Acura RSX, Fits 2003-2007 Honda Accord, and Fits 2004-2008 Acura TL. Part number 973-084 should be matched to the original connector layout for proper HVAC fan-speed control.
