Dorman 973-136 HVAC Blower Motor Resistor Kit

Dorman 973-136 is an HVAC blower motor resistor kit that replaces an overheated or corroded original resistor and restores blower speed control. It includes the resistor and a harness pigtail for a direct repair on select vehicles, including 1990-1993 Acura Integra applications.

Key Features

  • HVAC blower motor resistor kit for blower speed circuit repair
  • Includes a replacement resistor and wire harness pigtail
  • Blade terminal design with 4 terminals and 1 connector
  • Female connector with male terminals for the repair side connection
  • 16-inch wiring harness length for service replacement routing
  • 2 mounting holes for OE-style installation points
  • Fits 1990-1993 Acura Integra, N/A

Detailed Description

This Dorman HVAC blower motor resistor kit is built for vehicles that have lost one or more fan speeds due to heat damage, corrosion, or connector wear at the resistor circuit. Part number 973-136 is a practical replacement for the original equipment resistor assembly on 1990-1993 Acura Integra models, and the included harness pigtail addresses damaged connector ends at the same time. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286) for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Solve

  • Blower motor only works on certain fan speeds
  • No cabin airflow from the HVAC blower on selected settings
  • Heat-damaged resistor terminals or connector corrosion
  • Intermittent blower operation caused by worn electrical contacts
  • Failed resistor circuit after overheating at the original connector

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and mounting hole layout before installation. Inspect the blower motor connector and surrounding wiring for heat damage, and replace any damaged terminals or melted insulation as needed. Confirm the resistor is seated securely and the harness routing keeps the wiring away from heat sources and moving HVAC components. Compatible With 1990-1993 Acura Integra, N/A.

Quality Assurance

Dorman manufactures replacement electrical components for service repair applications, and this kit is built to address common OE resistor and connector failure points. Part number 973-136 is intended for direct replacement use on the listed Acura Integra model years.
