Detailed Product Information
This Dorman 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 973-952 is a practical OE-style electrical repair for the HVAC system and is listed for Fits 2005-2006 Chrysler Sebring and Fits 2005-2006 Dodge Stratus. This part cross-references Four Seasons 20300 for the same application.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Blower motor works only on certain fan speeds
- No cabin airflow from the HVAC blower on selected settings
- Intermittent blower operation caused by a damaged resistor connector
- Heat-related failure at the original resistor or pigtail
- Corroded or burned HVAC electrical terminals
Installation Notes and Tips
Inspect the blower motor connector, resistor cavity, and nearby wiring before installation. Repair any heat-damaged terminals or melted insulation so the new resistor is not exposed to the same fault condition. Verify terminal orientation and secure the harness routing to prevent strain on the connector. Part number 973-952 uses a 5-wire harness layout and does not include mounting hardware.
Quality Assurance
Dorman supplies replacement electrical components for vehicle-specific HVAC repairs, and this kit is configured to address resistor and connector failure at the source. Use the vehicle fitment details to confirm application before installation on 2005-2006 Chrysler Sebring or 2005-2006 Dodge Stratus models.
