Tridon Air Conditioning Resistor TFR038, 4-PIN

The Tridon Air Conditioning Resistor, part number TFR038, is an air conditioning resistor sold as each and identified as a 4-pin unit. It sits in the climate control and cooling category, so matching the electrical connection correctly matters as much as matching the application.

This listing carries a one year warranty and the unit weight is 0.11 kg. Those details can be useful when you are comparing replacement parts, checking freight expectations, or confirming that you have the correct style of component before fitting.

Fitment information supplied with this part points to Mitsubishi applications, including Mitsubishi Lancer references across multiple model years. Even so, the safest way to buy a climate control resistor is to confirm the part number TFR038 and compare the connector pin count and application details before ordering.

Application and Buying Notes

Air conditioning resistors are a fitment-sensitive electrical part, and the key identifiers here are the Tridon brand, part number TFR038, and the 4-pin layout. If your original unit has a different connector style or pin count, it is not the same part and should not be assumed to fit.

The supplied fitment information includes Mitsubishi references, with Mitsubishi Lancer listed across model years from 1992 through 2002 in the grouped preview. That makes the application detail helpful, but it still needs to be matched against the vehicle and the old resistor before you place an order.

For this type of component, the safest approach is to compare the part number first, then confirm the connector shape, number of pins, and where the unit mounts in the climate control system. Small differences in AC resistors can prevent correct operation even when the vehicle family looks similar.

The one year warranty applies to the part as sold, while the listed weight of 0.11 kg gives a rough indication of size and handling. If you are comparing with a removed part, keep the old unit handy and check the label, connector, and housing style before fitting the replacement.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number TFR038 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

Tridon Air Conditioning Resistor. Part number TFR038 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number TFR038, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a air conditioning resistor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include MITSUBISHI LANCER, MITSUBISHI LANCER 1992, MITSUBISHI LANCER 1993, MITSUBISHI LANCER 1994. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

The listed warranty is One Year. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.

Compatibility note: Confirm compatibility by matching the part number TFR038, the 4-pin connector, and the Mitsubishi application details before purchase.
