Detailed Product Description

The RU-827 blower motor resistor from Standard Ignition is engineered to provide reliable control over the HVAC blower motor speeds in compatible Ford vehicles. It features a screw attachment method that allows for a firm and stable fit within the HVAC system. The resistor includes a female rectangular connector designed to interface with the vehicle’s wiring harness, although the harness itself is not included. With four male blade terminals, this resistor supports multiple blower speed settings ranging from three to five, accommodating various climate control needs.

This part is compatible with a range of Ford models including the Escape, Fiesta, Focus, and several Transit variants such as Transit-150, Transit-250, Transit-350, Transit-350 HD, and Transit Connect. The absence of a wiring harness and mounting brackets means installation requires using existing vehicle components.
