Description
Product Overview
The BEHR Heater Servo Motor EAD516 P1975001 U b 43 647995 is an essential HVAC component designed for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, specifically compatible with the first generation Peugeot 3008 and 5008 models. This servo motor regulates the position of the heater flap, enabling precise control of the cabin temperature by adjusting airflow within the climate control system.
Function and Importance
This servo motor plays a critical role in maintaining a comfortable interior environment by modulating warm air delivery. Malfunctions in this part often lead to inconsistent heating performance, such as failure to reach desired temperatures or improper airflow direction. Over time, wear on the motor or its internal gears can cause it to fail, especially in vehicles with higher mileage or frequent HVAC use.
Replacement and Maintenance
Replacing the heater servo motor is a straightforward task for experienced mechanics or dedicated DIY enthusiasts. The unit is usually located behind the dashboard within the air conditioning housing. Removal involves accessing the HVAC control unit and detaching the faulty servo motor from its mounting points, then installing the new one by reversing these steps. It’s recommended to ensure the connector and linkage are properly secured to guarantee smooth operation after replacement.
