Dorman 973-562 HVAC Blower Motor Resistor Kit

Dorman 973-562 is an HVAC blower motor resistor kit that replaces a failed original resistor and the damaged connector on select Cadillac applications. It is built for vehicles where heat damage or corrosion has affected blower speed control, restoring proper fan operation in the HVAC system.

  • Includes a blower motor resistor and wiring harness pigtail
  • Blade terminal design with a female connector and male terminals
  • 4-wire harness with a 6-inch wiring harness length
  • 2 mounting holes for direct replacement-style installation
  • Made for select 2000-2004 Cadillac Seville and 2001-2004 Cadillac DeVille models

Detailed Product Overview

This Dorman blower motor resistor kit is a practical repair solution for HVAC systems that have suffered from overheated resistor circuits or corroded electrical connections. The resistor and harness are matched to service the original connector on 2001-2004 Cadillac DeVille and 2000-2004 Cadillac Seville applications, making it a focused replacement for common blower speed control failures. If you are searching for a Dorman 973-562 blower motor resistor kit for Cadillac DeVille or Seville, this part addresses the electrical connection point as well as the resistor itself.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., DR757, RU910) for the same application.

Common Repair Symptoms

  • Blower motor works only on certain fan speeds
  • HVAC fan stops operating after resistor overheating
  • Connector shows heat damage, melting, or corrosion
  • Intermittent cabin airflow from the dash vents
  • Electrical resistance issues at the blower motor circuit

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the blower motor connector, resistor mounting area, and surrounding wiring before installation. Replace any heat-damaged terminals or brittle insulation, and verify the harness routing keeps the connector away from hot HVAC components. Confirm the vehicle application by year and model before ordering; this Dorman 973-562 kit is listed for 2001-2004 Cadillac DeVille and 2000-2004 Cadillac Seville.

Quality Assurance

Dorman supplies replacement electrical components for service repairs where the original part has failed from heat or corrosion. This kit is intended to restore blower motor resistor function on the listed Cadillac applications using a replacement resistor and connector repair harness.
