Note: Verify pin assignment with vehicle-specific wiring diagram before installation.

1379217-1 vs 1379217-3 – Variant Difference

Both 1379217-1 and 1379217-3 are TE Connectivity part numbers for the same 5-pin connector family. The suffix (-1, -3) indicates the housing colour or wire seal variant. Both are functionally interchangeable for harness repair – confirm the housing profile matches your vehicle's connector before installation.

Compatible Applications

• Ventilated seat blower motor: Multi-speed fan motor harness connector for seat cooling/ventilation systems
• AC assembly harness: Blower motor speed control and power distribution connector
• General: 5-pin seat module and HVAC blower harness connectors

Diagnosis – Ventilated Seat Faults

• Seat ventilation not working at any speed: Check 12V at Pin 1 with seat ventilation on – no voltage indicates seat module or fuse fault upstream of the connector
• Only one speed works: Inspect the corresponding speed control pin (Pin 3/4/5) – an open circuit on one speed signal causes that speed to be unavailable
• Intermittent ventilation: Inspect terminal contact pressure – a loose terminal causes intermittent motor speed control

FAQ

Q: Is 1379217-1 the same as 1379217-3?
A: Both are TE Connectivity variants of the same 5-pin connector family. The suffix difference (-1 vs -3) indicates a housing colour or seal variant – both are functionally interchangeable for harness repair.
