I can not take credit for this but it's great! If you only get high on your
heat/AC control you need a new resistor. But the replacement Jeep one is junk!
5139719AA go with a HD Sebring replacement a direct swap! # 5174124AA I did it and it works great!

Sure, but eventually the switch itself melts. I bet if you pull out the switch it's already looking a little burnt.

Yeah mine completely melted. Had to repair with spade clips because Chrysler will only sell you a full dash wiring harness. Did the whole relay setup, now the relays run hot instead....Cheaper that way, but it sounds to me if you want to fix it properly, just replace the fan altogether when you fix the resistor.
