Blower motor resistor

[JamesPiluke]

I have a 2002 cavi, and was just wondering if anyone else has had to replace their Blower motor resistor. This will be the thrid time I have had to replace mine. Is this a GM fault, or am I just that unlucky. I wonder if there is a more permenate fix. Possibly a resistor off another GM? year? I find it ironic that the wifes car (2002 cavi) has had more service than my 1993 MX6.

Replace the blower motor resistor for first time in my 97 cavalier. Used an after-market one from autozone, installed Aug 06. I guess i'll see how long it lasts, though I doubt i'll keep the car much longer......year?

its a very common problem, do a search, theres been probably 10 threads about it in the last month or 2,

and theres nothing "ironic" about that, thats just what you get for owning a cavalier
