frankspeed420 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I need a heater blower resistor for an 86 with air conditioning. Please don't show me the ones on rockauto, they are all for non ac trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDude Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 The blower motor resistors are are all the same with or without AC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actuallyyyyyy they aren’t. 84-86 only the AC equipped from the factory Jeeps have a unique to them resistor that has 5 prongs instead of the 4 for all the others.

TheDude Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Ohhh, that's good to know since I have an 86'. Guess I've never had to replace on one of those years yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it has air conditioning its likely. Its got an extra white wire going to it along with the normal 4 prong plug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saveevryjp1998 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I've never seen a waggy without ac. I should have 1 or 2 here as well attached to the whole assembly but it would be easier to pull one from the 85 verses digging here to find it next time I'm out that way. I can't recall if the ones here were dealer or factory but I'd wager the 85 waggy has exactly what your after but no clue on the condition.

frankspeed420 Posted September 13, 2022 Author Share Posted September 13, 2022 Cool. If any are 2.5L (doubtful) I'm also looking for some ac hoses. Maybe a compressor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankspeed420 Posted September 13, 2022 Author Share Posted September 13, 2022 It looks like the 2.5 air conditioning hoses are tough too. I have to search here more but if anyone has them too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saveevryjp1998 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 What I have here would be 86 2.5 ac specific since I had both factory and dealer ac in some of the last xj and mj I ever parted. I'd probably struggle to identify what's what. Pics of what to dig up would help. Again not sure how much or what is exactly left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The heater box right there in front may have the blower resistor in it. Ill grab a pic in a few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 hoses should be able to be custom made by a shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will take me some time but I’ll definitely make a list of 84-86 specifics. I’ll even include the XJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
