Hi, family!

My heater fan/motor on my 2004 RX330 gone bad, so after some researches on ebay i'm confused.

All heater motors specially for RX330 have different wire plug! it is kinda small square. Then i typed heater fan for toyota highlander and babaaaam, highlander's fan motor have exactly plug like mine! WTF?

you should probably source it through one of the CL vendors - that way you are sure to get the right part... many parts on ebay can be generic and one size fits a lot type... not saying none of them are correct, but there is a higher chance you get the wrong part or end up modifying it to make it work...

not only ebay shows it, even other car parts websites. I just cant understand why for my RX i need to buy highlander part because RX part is not compatible with RX car

I am still guessing these are aftermarket parts places??? This is really hard to say - most of those places use stock photos that are generic... At the same time, when I search on ebay for highlander and rx330 blower motor, I get what appears to be the same images either way...

shape of motor is same but look at plugs, plugs are different on pictures

PS. How can i know exactly part number of this motor and where i can see its photo to compare with my rotor?

Sorry i found this numbers on motor 194000 - 7173 3E13.

There is one guy on ebay selling this motor with this numbers but for ES300 97-2001

Okay, i found out that for RX330 part number is 87103-48040. But nobody have it. But same motor for highlander with part # 87103-48020 look exactly like mine! Can i use it? I think problem is 87103-48040 is for Japan built which is different from US built. So can i use highlander's motor?

rockauto.com will most likely have a GOOD aftermarket piece that fits.
