Description
Overview
The BEHR Heater Servo Motor is designed specifically for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, providing precise control over your car’s heating system. This essential electro-mechanical component adjusts the heating and ventilation flaps inside the climate control system to regulate cabin temperature effectively.
Function and Importance
The servo motor controls the position of heater valves and air mix flaps, ensuring seamless operation between heating, cooling, and air circulation. Without a properly functioning servo motor, the cabin climate can become inconsistent, resulting in inadequate heating or cooling, discomfort for passengers, and potential system damage.
Suitable Models
This servo motor is compatible with various Citroën and Peugeot models, especially those commonly equipped with part codes EAM501, 951508UA14, and 6447QN. It is often sought after by mechanics and DIY enthusiasts for models such as Citroën C2, Citroën C3, and their Peugeot equivalents.
Installation and Maintenance
Replacing the heater servo motor typically involves access to the climate control unit inside the dashboard. After disconnecting the battery, remove panels to access the servo motor, disconnect wiring harnesses, and replace the faulty unit with the BEHR replacement. Regular checks are recommended if inconsistent cabin temperature control or heating flap noises are detected.
Common Issues and Longevity
Wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, or electrical faults can cause the servo motor to fail. Symptoms may include inability to change cabin temperature, strange noises from vents, or error codes in some vehicles. Replacing the servo motor restores proper heating function, improving comfort and system reliability.
