Blower resistor question

Featured Replies

Hey guys. I just received a new blower resistor in the mail.

There is some grey schtuff on the coils that I assume is normal. Question is, is this supposed to be continuous? There is a break in the grey schtuff. Do I need to send it back?

the grey stuff is a ceramic paint to keep the coils from shorting together ,thus decreasing the coils resistance. it doesn't necessarily need to go all the way across, unless its real broken up, do you have a pic.?

OK thanks all. I ordered it from 1stSubaru. I think they are in either Jersey or CT. Good price but they kinda sting ya on shipping. Small box then stuck in a huge one.

I got one from a nieghbor that has no paint on one of the three coils.

 

?1 is it useable of couse it is but for how long?--- guess please

 

?2 is there any way to repaint it? if so were do we get the stuff to fix it?

 

Ive pulled 3 out of PAP cars all shot
