HVAC Blower Control Switch for Subaru

Restore proper cabin fan control with the Universal Air Blower Resistor SW11345C. This HVAC blower control switch application is built for select Subaru Forester, Baja, Legacy, and Outback models with manual blower resistor systems.

Key Features

  • Universal Air Blower Resistor product line
  • Direct-fit HVAC blower control switch application
  • Supports manual fan-speed control in the HVAC system
  • Fits select Subaru Forester, Subaru Baja, Subaru Legacy, and Subaru Outback applications
  • Part number SW11345C for accurate ordering and lookup

Detailed Description

The Universal Air SW11345C is a blower resistor used in HVAC systems that rely on a resistor-based fan speed circuit rather than automatic temperature control. It is listed for 2003-2005 Subaru Forester, 2003-2004 Subaru Baja, and 2000-2004 Subaru Legacy and Outback models. For Subaru Baja, Legacy, and Outback applications, it is not compatible with Automatic Temperature Control systems. If you are searching for a Subaru Forester blower resistor or a Subaru Legacy HVAC blower control switch, SW11345C is the cataloged part number to verify against your vehicle.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

  • Blower motor works only on certain fan speeds
  • No cabin airflow from the HVAC vents on selected settings
  • Intermittent fan-speed operation
  • Loss of low, medium, or high blower settings
  • Faulty resistor circuit causing inconsistent HVAC fan control

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm whether your vehicle uses a manual blower resistor system before ordering. This part is not compatible with Automatic Temperature Control systems on 2003-2004 Subaru Baja and 2000-2004 Subaru Legacy and Outback models. Match the part number SW11345C and verify the connector style and HVAC configuration against the original component before installation.

Quality Assurance

Universal Air supplies this blower resistor under the Blower Resistor product line for HVAC service applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
