Does anyone know for a fact what kind of blower motor I have in my 2017 Ram 1500: 4-speed or 7-speed?

I called the local dealership this morning ans was told it was a 4-speed.

However, this article:
https://www.infotainment.com/produc...4-radio-bezel-upgrade-kit?variant=42208135303

says this:

CURRENT BLOWER FAN SPEED?

The Ram trucks were manufactured from the factory with 2 different types of climate HVAC packages. The majority of 1500 trucks are equipped with the 7-speed blower fan. All Heavy Duty 2500-5500 trucks and early model 2013 1500 trucks are equipped with the 4-speed blower fan.


Accordingly, I have a 7-speed blower.

Is there any easy way to tell ???

I saw that. Firstly, the pictures look almost identical - not very useful.
Secondly, I dontlhave geh original Ram bezel. It's been replaced by an aftermarket head unit that went toast.

So I'm just asking - does the 2017 Ram 1500 have a 4-speed fan motor or 7-speed?

One has 4 dashed lines, one has 7 dashed lines (in the aforementioned pictures). How many does yours have? What is your reason for asking?
