Run the fan at lower speeds! Replace fan unit!

Don't be a fool! If you blow them, replace the fan assembly. That's 3 screws and a connector. Easy and 12 inches to the right of this part so it's easy to access. Don't run the fan at full speed and you won't burn them! Bad design, I know. Our 03 Durango chills beautifully in 2nd gear and we live in Texas where you can cook a whole hog in a spoonful of our heat! I set it to 3 and open the windows to let hot air out when I jump in for the first time. Then I reduce back to 2nd speed and after 5โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast

  • Hard to say

Plug it in for easy swapping

I have a 2003 Dodge Durango that is currently on resistor #4, fan #2. The first error left me with just speed 4 back, as did the second error. I also replaced the fan at this point after realizing that the original (which was 13 years old at the time) didn't spin as freely as I expected. Third mistake I had to replace the entire resistor/wiring harness as the connector had melted into the resistor. The last error left the fan idle. Bought a different wire harness/resistor. I used wire nuts toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers

Good value for money; Easy to install

If you have a Dodge, you know that you have to change it all the time. Especially if you try to run the fan above 2. The fan motor is too large for the resistor installed on the Dodge in the Dakotas. And they told me the Durangos were like that. I always try to have a spare of these on hand. Revain was the best price I've found and was delivered quickly when I needed 1 quickly and didn't have a spare, although I only had to replace the pigtail once. And I should mention that I am a woman. So if

Pros
  • Trial version for one year

It fits and now I have warmth!

This is the second one I've bought in a year so I'm only giving it 4 stars. Not sure if it's a product or a Durango (2003) but most likely a car (crappy Dodge design). But overall everything fit perfectly and was pretty easy to install. You'll have to cut the wires a bit (they're too long) and bend them a bit to get the old one out. There's also a small tab that needs to be snapped off before installation (there's a guide for that, so read first). Since this is the second time I've gone through

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Some bugs

Works well. Need a wiring harness.

Ordered with wiring harness. just in case. Dodge Durango 2005 I'm glad I did because the existing harness burned out. - If the wiring harness needs to be replaced, it will take an hour or more. - Tools: 8mm wrench, 1/4" ratchet and 8mm socket, good quality wire stripper/cutter. - Easy repair, but you have to bend down a bit to get it. - I also replaced the fan. Maybe it was bad, that's why there was a problem. $85.- Initial Symptoms: The fan would not turn on at all. fan replaced. Then it wasโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Null

A quality replacement item for do it yourself automotive HVAC repairs

I had a recurring problem with the Dodge Dakota 01 airflow resistor boards, I thought it was a design flaw. I was then informed that the fan motor may be drawing too much current. I replaced my aging motor with a new one that I bought from Revain at the same time and prior to ordering I noticed that the connector that connects to the resistor board was damaged and decided to replace the connector along with the resistor board . This Dorman item #973-426 was an exact replacement and an excellent

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • So-so

Worked great on my 2004 Dodge Durango SLT 4

Worked great on my 2004 Dodge Durango SLT 4.7L 4.7L. My internal fan only worked on high settings 3 and 4, nothing on the first two low settings. After installing this fan resistor, the fan worked in all 4 settings. Ease of installation. It is located just below the glove box on the passenger side. Simply unscrew and remove the 2-8mm screws securing the small black cover to access the wiring harness that connects to the fan resistor. Simply slide the red locking mechanism on the passenger sideโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn
