nb7275 Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I have a 1999 RX300. The other day I got in the car, turned it on, turned the dial on the right to turn on the fan (blower) for air/AC, and instead of being able to adjust the fan speed, it just went to high and stayed there. The graph can still be regulated, but the speed of the fan stays on high. Took it to my mechanic and they said it's the 'blower motor control relay'. The part is only a Lexus part and the cost is $370! Give or take. Does anyone know if there is an after-market part for this? The Lexus part # is 87165-22020. Thanks for any help/ideas. BTW, I LOVE my RX300!!

I'm printing out the diagram and will take to my mechanic to see if that's what the part looks like. Thanks for the tip!
cduluk Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 try parts.com as well. Still OEM but they usually have the best prices.
