What It Helps Fix

  • Blower motor only working on certain fan speeds
  • No cabin airflow from the HVAC vents
  • Intermittent heater or A/C fan operation
  • Loss of front HVAC blower control
  • Electrical resistance failure in the blower circuit

Installation Notes

Always make sure electrical components are free of debris and moisture before installation. Verify the vehicle uses the listed front HVAC configuration and automatic climate control setup before replacing the resistor. On 2008-2012 Ford Escape applications, the fitment notes specify pigtail use 1712341.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts 1712398 is cataloged as an HVAC blower motor resistor replacement for the listed Ford, Lincoln, Mazda, and Mercury applications. Confirm connector condition, inspect the blower circuit, and compare the original part number before installation.

This part fits 152 vehicles
Always verify fitment with your vehicle's VIN if unsure. Submodel & trim restrictions may apply.
