Key Features
- Direct replacement blower motor resistor kit for HVAC blower speed control repair
- Includes a resistor and wire harness pigtail for the affected connector
- 4-wire, 4-terminal design with blade terminals and a female connector
- 6-inch wiring harness length for service replacement use
- 2 mounting holes for installation on the original HVAC location
- Fits 2007-2010 Ford Edge and 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX with manual air conditioning controls
Detailed Description
This Dorman blower motor resistor kit is made for repairing blower speed issues caused by an overheated resistor or a corroded electrical connection. The included harness pigtail helps restore the connection at the HVAC resistor circuit, making it a practical replacement for the original equipment part on 2007-2010 Ford Edge and 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX models equipped with manual air conditioning controls. Part number 973-522 is also a useful reference when searching for a blower motor resistor kit for these applications.
This part cross-references OE-style applications such as 7T4Z19A706A and RU635 for the same vehicle coverage.
What It Helps Fix
- Blower motor only working on certain speed settings
- No cabin airflow from the HVAC blower motor
- Intermittent blower operation caused by heat-damaged resistor circuits
- Corroded or overheated connector at the resistor harness
- Electrical resistance issues in the blower motor control circuit
Installation Notes and Tips
Install this resistor kit in the original HVAC resistor location and verify the vehicle uses manual air conditioning controls before ordering. Inspect the connector, terminals, and surrounding wiring for heat damage before installation. Confirm the blade terminal style and 4-wire harness layout match the original connection on your Ford Edge or Lincoln MKX. Dorman 973-522 is intended for direct service replacement of the resistor and harness interface on the listed applications.
Quality Assurance
Dorman supplies replacement electrical and HVAC service parts for vehicle repair applications. This kit is engineered to replace the failed resistor and damaged pigtail connection found on the specified Ford and Lincoln models.
