Built for Honda HVAC resistor repair

This Dorman 973-117 blower motor resistor kit is made for vehicles that need restoration of blower speed control after the original resistor or connector has overheated, corroded, or lost continuity. It is a practical replacement for front HVAC systems on 2011-2017 Honda Odyssey and 2006-2014 Honda Ridgeline models, helping restore proper blower motor operation without replacing the entire HVAC assembly. This part cross-references OE-style applications such as 4P1665 and 79330SJK003 for the same application.

What it helps correct

  • Blower motor only working on certain speeds
  • No airflow from the front HVAC blower motor
  • Intermittent fan operation caused by resistor failure
  • Heat-damaged or corroded resistor connector terminals
  • Electrical resistance issues at the blower motor resistor circuit

Installation notes and tips

Verify connector condition before installation and replace any heat-damaged wiring at the harness pigtail connection. The kit uses 4 blade terminals, 1 female connector, and 2 mounting holes for OE-style placement. Confirm front-position fitment before ordering: Fits 2011-2017 Honda Odyssey, front; Fits 2006-2014 Honda Ridgeline, front.

Quality assurance

Manufactured by Dorman as a replacement HVAC electrical connector and resistor kit for select Honda vehicles. Use the included gasket or seal during installation to help support a proper mounting interface.
