2004 Silverado Blower Motor Resistor?

[Hookmaster]

I lost fan speeds 1 and 2 yesterday. I assume its the blower motor resistor. I replaced it about 5 years ago so I suppose its time again. The last one was from the dealer. Should I get it there again or are there some aftermarket ones that are good?

[Macgyver55]

I've replaced plenty of them and haven't seen any appreciable difference in any of the aftermarket brands.

OEM may be slightly better, but the important thing to do is make sure the connector and terminals are not burned at all and fit snugly.

Definetly check the connector for signs of burning and melting.

I usually install the NAPA brand and have not had any issues yet.

You might want to double check with the dealer. I had mine replaced for free under a recall about a year ago on an 04.

GM extended coverage on them to 10 year 150,000 miles
