Fitment And Application

This blower fan is intended for factory air-conditioned variants of the Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107. It replaces the original HVAC blower motor and connects to the existing blower housing and electrical connector. Always compare the part numbers printed on your original unit with the codes listed above (1608174880 / 6441V0 / 6441V2) to confirm fitment.

Installation Recommendations

• Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting work to avoid electrical short circuits and to protect vehicle electronics.
• Access the blower motor via the passenger footwell or by removing the glove box/under-dash trim depending on vehicle trim level.
• Unplug the electrical connector and remove the mounting screws or clips securing the blower housing. Carefully extract the motor without forcing plastic clips.
• Install the new unit in the correct orientation, secure fasteners to the manufacturer’s torque guidelines, reconnect the electrical plug and test all fan speeds and AC/heater functions before reassembling trim.
• Replace the cabin air filter and clean the blower intake area while the unit is accessible to extend component life.
• Recommended tools: Torx/screwdriver set, trim removal tools, basic socket set, multimeter for electrical checks.

Why This Part Commonly Fails

Blower motors typically fail due to mechanical wear and environmental contamination. Common causes include worn bearings or brushes, accumulation of leaves and dust in the intake causing imbalance, moisture-induced corrosion of electrical contacts, and overheating from restricted airflow or a failing blower resistor/control module. Symptoms of impending failure are unusual noises (whining, grinding), reduced airflow at all fan speeds, or intermittent operation.

Lifespan And Maintenance

Lifespan depends on driving conditions and usage pattern; with regular maintenance many blower motors last several years. To prolong service life, keep the HVAC intake and cabin filter clean, avoid letting moisture and debris build up in the ventilation system, and address abnormal noises early to prevent additional damage.

Notes

Designed specifically for air-conditioned variants of the Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107. This is a direct-replacement blower motor; compatibility should be confirmed by matching existing part numbers listed above.

Replacement Valeo blower motor designed as a direct-fit solution for small city cars from the PSA family and Toyota Aygo.

Key Benefits

Quick restoration of ventilation performance, compatibility with original mounting points and electrical connections, and straightforward swap-in installation. Using the correct blower motor prevents overheating of the HVAC resistor and avoids poor cabin airflow or unusual noises.

Technical Information

• Manufacturer: Valeo
• Model: Citroën C1, Peugeot 107, Toyota Aygo
• Product Codes: N101812H
• Additional Numbers: 6441V0, 6441V2
• Application: Vehicles with Air Conditioning (Cabin Blower/Heater Fan)

Installation

1. Disconnect the vehicle battery before beginning work.
2. Access the blower motor—typically located under the dashboard on the passenger side; removal of the glovebox or lower trim may be required.
3. Unplug the electrical connector and remove the securing screws or clips holding the blower assembly.
4. Extract the old motor assembly and fit the Valeo unit, ensuring the fan wheel and motor seating are correctly aligned.
5. Reconnect the electrical connector, reinstall trim components, and reconnect the battery. Test ventilation at all fan speeds and check for abnormal noise or vibration.

Mounting Recommendations

• Use appropriate hand tools and avoid forcing plastic clips to prevent damage to trim panels.
• Inspect the cabin air filter when replacing the blower motor; a clogged filter increases motor load and shortens service life.
• Ensure connector pins are clean and free of corrosion; apply dielectric grease if exposed terminals show signs of oxidation.
• Balance the fan wheel and verify there is no contact with the housing before final assembly.

Why the Part Most Often Fails

• Worn Brushes Or Bearings: Over time the motor brushes and bearings degrade, causing reduced speed, noise or seizure.
• Debris And Foreign Objects: Leaves, dust and moisture entering the HVAC intake can obstruct the fan or damage the impeller.
• Electrical Issues: Poor connections, corroded terminals or faults in the blower resistor/relay can lead to intermittent operation or overload.
• Increased Load From Clogged Cabin Filter: Restricted airflow forces the motor to work harder, accelerating wear.

Notes For Mechanics And DIYers

When ordering, customers often search by the part numbers N101812H, 6441V0 or 6441V2—include these in your listing and diagnostics to improve findability. After replacement, verify full range of fan speeds and proper HVAC function. If unusual electrical symptoms persist, check the blower resistor, fuses and wiring harness for faults.

Typical search terms: Valeo heater fan, blower motor, Citroën C1 fan, Peugeot 107 blower, part number 6441V1.

Compatibility

Suitable For: Citroën C1, Peugeot 107 (For Vehicles Without Air Conditioning). Check the product codes below to verify fitment with the vehicle’s existing part number.

How It Works And Why It Fails

The heater fan circulates air through the heater core and into the passenger compartment. It consists of an electric motor with an attached impeller and an electrical connector for speed control. Common failure modes are worn motor brushes, seized bearings, debris build-up in the impeller, or electrical faults such as connector corrosion or a failed speed resistor. Symptoms of a failing unit include reduced or intermittent airflow, unusual noise (rattling or grinding), and complete loss of blower function.

Typical Replacement Procedure

• Disconnect The Battery Before Starting Work.
• Access The Blower Motor From The Passenger Side Under-Dash Area; In Many Cases Removal Of The Glovebox Or Lower Dash Trim Is Required.
• Unplug The Electrical Connector And Remove Mounting Screws/Clips Holding The Fan Assembly.
• Withdraw The Old Unit Carefully (Watch For Debris) And Compare Connectors/Flange Orientation With The New Part.
• Fit The Replacement Unit, Reconnect Electrical Connector, Reinstall Trim/Glovebox And Reconnect The Battery.
