Product Description
The Fan Regulator 6441V8 is an essential automotive component designed for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. This fan speed resistor is crucial for controlling the blower motor within the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. It enables precise adjustment of interior airflow, ensuring comfort in all driving conditions.
Main Function
The fan regulator maintains optimal performance of the heater or air conditioning fan by managing different fan speeds. It ensures the blower motor operates efficiently, which is vital for effective defrosting, heating, and cooling inside the vehicle.
Common Symptoms & Reasons for Replacement
The need to replace the fan regulator often arises when the blower motor works only at high speed or fails to function at certain speed settings. Over time, exposure to heat and electrical load causes the resistor to deteriorate or fail. Symptoms include losing one or more fan speeds, or a completely inoperative interior fan.
Fits Models
This fan regulator is suitable for a wide range of Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. It is commonly used in models equipped with manual or automatic climate control. Typical applications include Citroën Berlingo, Xsara Picasso, C3, C4, and Peugeot 206, 307, Partner, among others (please check compatibility with your specific model and year).
Installation Guidance
Replacing the fan regulator typically involves removing the glove box or lower dashboard panel to access the HVAC unit. Disconnect the faulty resistor, connect the new 6441V8 unit, and secure it in place. Professional installation is recommended, but experienced DIY mechanics can also perform the replacement with standard hand tools.
