Take old damaged one in and match it up if damaged you should still have the idea from what's left old one, T

Like Tom said, Just match it up. Not all part numbers are the same but, that doesn't always mean the part will not work. -------------------------------------------------------- Your only as good as your tools!

Gotta add a tidbit: A little older than that, GM use a fuse type things (highly professional word) mounted right on or real close to compressor when failed compressor's clutch wouldn't engage. Long time ago and CRS (can't remember shoot) sets in. Bet is it was sensing high temps but didn't reset but rather blew. It vaguely looked familiar. If yours has damage working or not it should go. I can't be sure but think mostly Buick and Caddies used them, T

I might be slow sometimes but isn't he working on a blower circuit? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Yes - what's left of the mind is something like that was mounted on or near the blower. The game is it's broken by OP's post but not more unless I missed it what didn't work, if it didn't work or what?? Tom
