Description
Product Overview
This Valeo power steering heater motor is engineered specifically for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, including popular models such as the Citroën C2 and C3. It plays a crucial role in regulating the heating system by driving the heater’s mechanisms to ensure optimal cabin temperature control. This component is essential for maintaining a comfortable interior environment during colder conditions.
Function and Importance
The heater motor powers the heating system’s servo mechanism, enabling precise adjustments and flow of warm air inside the vehicle. Over time, these motors can fail due to continuous use, dust accumulation, or electrical faults, causing the heating system to malfunction or become unresponsive. Replacing a faulty motor restores the system’s efficiency, improving passenger comfort and safety.
Application and Compatibility
This heater motor is designed to fit several Citroën and Peugeot models, most notably the Citroën C2, C3, and other compatible PSA group vehicles. It often appears in searches by product codes such as N100463X or 6447NR, making these codes useful when sourcing the correct part for repairs or replacements.
Installation Notes
Installation typically requires removing the dashboard panel to access the heater motor assembly within the HVAC system. It is recommended to disconnect the battery before starting the replacement to avoid electrical hazards. The new motor fits directly into the mounting area and connects through the existing electrical harness without modification. After installation, test the heating settings to confirm proper operation.
