The cooling fan resistor, GM part 96656660, broke while replacing the radiator fan. This part is unavailable anywhere in the US outside of salvage yards. We are being told the only way to get the obscure part is to replace the entire engine wiring harness which is crazy! This is an enormous oversight on chevys part to make such a small simple part unavailable. Does anyone know of a compatible chevy part? We would rather not order from overseas.

 

I think this part might help you. If you can find the values of the resistor you can put any good quality resistor in there.

Thank you for the website. I had seen that site, but looked like the part was coming from Russia? Am I looking at it wrong? I'd love it if it was in the US!
