was slightly different

The resistors on the module were wider than the slot in the airbox. I had to carefully cut the air intake pipe a bit wider. outside works great.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Update Availability

works but. in Blower

This is a great part but on a Chevy Express 3500 02 van you will need to cut the top and bottom holes with a dremel to install the new part once you cut it out , check it then paste the silicone into the hole to prevent water etc. from entering and damaging the new part. The fan is located next to the engine under the hood.

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

My Chevy Express was at full speed.

My Chevy Express only had full speed on the air conditioner - replace resistor - all 4 speeds work now. A small bit on the plastic case when removing - as this part is different from my 2000. The same connectors but a different hole in the fan housing.

Pros
  • Like everything before
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

Part didn't fit - Motors

Part came and didn't fit. I have tried to return or make a claim but have not been able to get a response to the 1800 number provided. I should have gotten it from another source but at least I should be able to return it and get a refund! Asuurant's defense plan is a nightmare. After several attempts and several hours still no answer!. I'm not sure if their purpose is to disappoint people and choose not to file a claim, but that's why a person buys a protection plan! to get timely help and…

  • Good thing

Easy 5 minute fix but clean the fan motor or it will burn again!

The fan motor in my 2006 Express 2500 stopped working and I could smell burning. I removed the fan motor and found a bunch of dirt in the motor part, removed the rubber hose from the bottom and shook out all that junk. Blow it out with compressed air and was able to hand crank the fan motor to loosen it. I reinstalled it and it worked but only in HI settings. This does not work for the first 3 fan settings. So I ordered this resistor and replaced the existing one. The old one seemed a bit…

Pros
  • Best of the Niche
Cons
  • Will be added later

May or may not directly match. Show comments.

How do you know if you need it? If your air conditioner fan only runs at some speeds but not others, that is the function of this resistor. Often the only speed that works is high, or the two fastest. The lower the speed setting, the hotter the resistance will be. It is cooled by being in an airbox where fresh air is forced past the cooling resistor. Resistors fail due to age - my van is now 16 years old and despite low mileage - no wonder the resistor failed. IF your fan motor is making or…

Pros
  • Beautiful appearance
Cons
  • Some flaws
