It uses 2 connectors, a rectangular connector shape, blade terminals, and a 2-bolt mounting layout for a direct-fit installation on the listed application. This part also cross-references Standard Ignition RU1051 for the same application.
What It Helps Fix
- HVAC blower fan stuck on one speed
- Loss of one or more blower speed settings
- Intermittent cabin airflow control
- Burnt or failed blower motor resistor
- Heating and cooling performance issues caused by resistor failure
