Universal Air SW11575C HVAC Blower Motor Resistor

Blower Resistor for Kia Sportage

Universal Air SW11575C is an HVAC blower motor resistor for select Kia Sportage applications. It is used to restore proper blower motor speed control when the cabin fan only works on certain settings or stops responding at lower speeds.

Key Features

• HVAC blower motor resistor for select Kia Sportage models
• Supports blower speed control in the heating and air conditioning system
• Direct-fit replacement for listed applications
• Universal Air Blower Resistor line for HVAC service parts
• Part number SW11575C for catalog and cross-reference lookup

Detailed Description

Universal Air SW11575C is a blower resistor used in the HVAC system to regulate fan speed by controlling electrical resistance to the blower motor. It fits 1997-2002 Kia Sportage and 2007 Kia Sportage applications, with a note that the 2007 Kia Sportage listing is not compatible with Automatic Temperature Control systems. For buyers searching for a Kia Sportage blower resistor, SW11575C provides a focused replacement option for the listed manual-control applications.

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

What It Helps Fix

• Blower motor works on only one speed
• Fan speeds are intermittent or inoperative
• HVAC airflow is weak because lower speeds do not function
• Cabin fan control is inconsistent on a Kia Sportage
• Resistor failure causing loss of normal heater and A/C fan operation

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, make, model, and HVAC control type before ordering. This part fits 2007 Kia Sportage, N/A, and is not compatible with Automatic Temperature Control systems; it also fits 1997-2002 Kia Sportage, N/A. Inspect the blower motor connector and surrounding wiring for heat damage before installing the new resistor, since a damaged connector can affect performance.

Quality Assurance

Universal Air identifies SW11575C as part of its Blower Resistor product line for HVAC repair applications. Confirm the part number and vehicle fitment against the existing component before installation.
