Your blower fan works on some speeds but not others — or only blows on the highest setting. On 2nd and 3rd Gen Ram trucks and Jeep Grand Cherokees, 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: 4720278
Fits:
- 1993–2002 Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, 3500 (2nd Gen)
- 2003–2008 Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, 3500 (3rd Gen)
- 1993–2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee (select trims)
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.
