Universal Air SW11529C is a direct-fit blower resistor for rear HVAC systems that use multiple fan speeds. In Ford Explorer and related truck-based SUV platforms, the resistor regulates current to the rear blower motor so the cabin fan can operate at the selected speed. This part number, SW11529C, is listed for rear A/C-equipped applications across the 1995-2005 model years shown in the fitment data.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Symptoms It Can Address

• Rear blower only works on one speed
• Rear HVAC fan stops responding to speed changes
• Intermittent rear A/C blower operation
• Loss of lower blower speeds in the rear climate system
• Uneven cabin airflow from the rear HVAC unit

Installation Notes

Verify rear A/C configuration and match the vehicle year, make, model, and position before installation. Inspect the blower motor connector and related wiring for heat damage or corrosion, since a failed resistor can be accompanied by connector wear. Confirm the HVAC control head and blower motor are functioning properly after replacement.

Quality Assurance

Universal Air SW11529C is cataloged as a blower resistor in the HVAC motors, core, case, and related components category and is listed for the confirmed vehicle applications above.
