It addresses loss of fan speed options by replacing a worn or failed resistor assembly. Because vehicle part numbers and regional variants can differ, confirm your OEM reference number (15141283) before ordering; this listing is for an aftermarket unit supplied as a single resistor piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I know this resistor fits my vehicle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the part reference and model years against your vehicle. The product lists the OEM reference 15141283 and covers many Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Hummer, Pontiac, and Saturn models across specified year ranges.
