  • Here is how to change a blower motor resistor in a Citroen relay. You can tell it’s the relay if you start losing blower settings. For example your van heating will only work on settings 3 and 4 but not 1 or 2. Strangely for us ours didn’t work after we changed the resistor at first. We took it for a short spin and it started working and has worked since. Really not sure why that was hopefully someone can tell me. Normally it should work straight off. Haven’t a clue why I needed to drive first for it to kick in.

    Never mind the blow motor, its good to see you engage the little one with DIY activities, keeping him away from phones and tablets. 👍

    This video helped me fix the same issue without replacing the resistor, I removed it, checked the contacts and they were corroded, cleaned them up with sandpaper and tested resistance across them (neg on 5, positive on 1 to 4) and they all had increasing resistance rates, plugged it back in and it worked fine, all settings on the blower now working as they should, because of the way it is positioned moisture will trickle down to the connector and corrode them over time. The bit size required is 5.5mm by the way, and he made it look much harder than it was to get to it and undo it. :)

    Thanks so much. I have searched hi and low on the internet for where the blower motor resistor located and how to remove it. Mine is a Peugeot Boxer, but identical. Easy job when you know.

    I have a fiat ducato 2012. the heater started to run intermittently, stopped, started randomly. I also changed the air heater and the thermal resistance with new ones, but it does the same thing. it goes, it stops when she wants and for as long as she wants. what could it be?

      Best answer every. In my opinion swearing in conversation is different than swearing at someone. The kids may as well get use to it.
