Your blower fan works on some speeds but not others — or only blows on the highest setting. On 4th Gen Ram trucks, this is the classic sign of a failed blower motor resistor. The resistor controls fan speed by regulating voltage to the blower motor. When it fails, certain speeds drop out entirely. This is the OEM Mopar replacement, direct factory spec.
Part Number: 68048900AA
Fits:
- 2009–2014 Ram 1500 (3.0L Diesel, 3.6L V6, 3.7L V6, 4.7L V8, 5.7L V8)
- 2009–2018 Ram 2500 & 3500 (5.7L V8, 6.4L V8, 6.7L Diesel)
Why replace it?
- Fan only works on high speed (most common symptom)
- Fan works on some speeds but not others
- No airflow at any speed (check blower motor too)
- Intermittent fan operation that worsens over time
Resistor vs. blower motor — how to tell:
If your fan works on the highest speed but not lower speeds, the resistor is almost certainly the culprit — high speed bypasses the resistor entirely. If the fan doesn’t work on any speed, the blower motor itself may be failed. See our 4th Gen OEM Blower Motor listing (68048905AB) if needed.
