Whats it called ...

Hi all,

Cleaning and fixing things up while my front clip is off and I pulled this off the heater box (heater box was full of crap), It's broke, I need to get another, don't know what it is called...
It has a Ford number: E3TH-19A706-AA


Thanks

Sorry for the poor images, cell phone is all I got.

-Enjoy

That's the heater fan resistor, it allows low/med/hi speeds of the fan.

Blower motor resistor
Auto zone P/N JA1518
$39.99

It would be an easy junk yard find. I pick up a spare with the same P/N at the junk yard due the high replacement cost, just to have it on hand if I needed it down the road.

Awe, Thats what it is...

Welp, It's junk and I'm likely lucky it didn't burn the truck up, it was packed with leaf debris that had burn marks.

What I don't get, it's broke, yet all blower speeds worked, maybe it let go as I was pulling the harness or front clip, it does not look fresh broke.

Jim, Thanks for the AZ PN...

Thanks ya'all, appreciate it.

-Enjoy

I picked one up at carquest for my truck not to long ago and if memory serves me right it was cheaper than the autozone price.

I just looked up Blower Motor Resistor on Napaonline and it's $22.99.

However after looking at the images closely I see that mine is actually not broken, It looks like there is a 5th terminal rusted off, however it appears to be made that way and only has 4 terminals

Cool, 22.99+tx less I have to spend!

Thanks ya'all really appreciate the input.

-Enjoy

Kraylake, that's a 2-coil 3-terminal resisitor pack, trucks with factory A/C use a 3-coil 4-terminal pack that is $22 for my '90 (ECH BR223) and $36 for what looks like the one Festus posted a picture of (ECH BR342).

Was the terminals melted? If not, just clean it up good and use some dielectric grease on the terminals as you have all speeds still. Right in the middle of the coils is a thermal fuse. That will open up and you will loose all but high speed.

I just cleaned my 89 resistor after a leaf got stuck in it and smoked my Wife out of the truck!

Dunno. Perhaps Marshall Dillion sent him on an errand?
