Detailed Description
The SKP SK973199 is an HVAC blower motor resistor used in the climate control system to manage fan speeds through the blower motor circuit. When the resistor fails, the blower may stop working on certain speeds or operate inconsistently. This replacement part is engineered for the listed Ford, Mercury, and Lincoln applications and supports accurate airflow control through the vents. This part cross-references UAC SW11380C for the same application.
Common Symptoms It Can Address
- Blower motor works only on one speed
- Loss of low or medium fan settings
- Intermittent cabin airflow from the vents
- HVAC fan speed control that no longer responds correctly
- Reduced comfort from inconsistent climate system operation
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the connector style and vehicle application before installation. Replace the resistor only after confirming the blower motor and related wiring are in good condition, since a failing motor can damage the new resistor. For fitment, this part is listed for 2002-2010 Ford Explorer, 2007-2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, 2002-2010 Mercury Mountaineer, 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, and 2002 Ford Thunderbird.
