This may be due to a poor electrical connection at the blower motor speed control. If the blower motor speed control is determined to be the causal part, replacement of the electrical connector pigtail harness (14S411) to the blower motor speed control is also recommended to avoid repeat repairs. Use pigtail harness service part numbers 3U2Z-14S411-ZEA or CU2Z-14S411-FA, as both parts are interchangeable. Refer to Wiring Diagram, Cell 5 for recommended splicing procedures.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10163573-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10163573-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10163573","components":[{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null},{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null},{"id":"hvac","name":"Heating and air conditioning","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"FORD","model":"EXPEDITION","year_from":2009,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2009_ford_expedition","2010_ford_expedition","2011_ford_expedition","2012_ford_expedition","2013_ford_expedition","2014_ford_expedition","2015_ford_expedition","2016_ford_expedition","2017_ford_expedition"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"EXPLORER","year_from":2011,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2011_ford_explorer","2012_ford_explorer","2013_ford_explorer","2014_ford_explorer","2015_ford_explorer","2016_ford_explorer","2017_ford_explorer","2018_ford_explorer","2019_ford_explorer"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"F-150","year_from":2009,"year_to":2014,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2009_ford_f-150","2010_ford_f-150","2011_ford_f-150","2012_ford_f-150","2013_ford_f-150","2014_ford_f-150"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"FLEX","year_from":2009,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2009_ford_flex","2010_ford_flex","2011_ford_flex","2012_ford_flex","2013_ford_flex","2014_ford_flex","2015_ford_flex","2016_ford_flex","2017_ford_flex","2018_ford_flex","2019_ford_flex"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","year_from":2009,"year_to":2014,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2009_ford_mustang","2010_ford_mustang","2011_ford_mustang","2012_ford_mustang","2013_ford_mustang","2014_ford_mustang"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"POLICE INTERCEPTOR SEDAN","year_from":2013,"year_to":2017,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"FORD","model":"TAURUS","year_from":2008,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2008_ford_taurus","2009_ford_taurus","2010_ford_taurus","2011_ford_taurus","2012_ford_taurus","2013_ford_taurus","2014_ford_taurus","2015_ford_taurus","2016_ford_taurus","2017_ford_taurus","2018_ford_taurus","2019_ford_taurus"]},{"make":"LINCOLN","model":"MKT","year_from":2010,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2010_lincoln_mkt","2011_lincoln_mkt","2012_lincoln_mkt","2013_lincoln_mkt","2014_lincoln_mkt","2015_lincoln_mkt","2016_lincoln_mkt","2017_lincoln_mkt","2018_lincoln_mkt","2019_lincoln_mkt"]},{"make":"LINCOLN","model":"NAVIGATOR","year_from":2009,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2009_lincoln_navigator","2010_lincoln_navigator","2011_lincoln_navigator","2012_lincoln_navigator","2013_lincoln_navigator","2014_lincoln_navigator","2015_lincoln_navigator","2016_lincoln_navigator","2017_lincoln_navigator"]},{"make":"MERCURY","model":"SABLE","year_from":2008,"year_to":2009,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2008_mercury_sable","2009_mercury_sable"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
