Description
Product Overview
The Behr Heater Servo Motor EAM501 is an essential electrical component designed specifically for the heating systems of Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. This motor controls the heating flap position within the HVAC unit, ensuring precise temperature regulation inside the cabin for optimal comfort.
Commonly used in models such as the Citroën C2 and C3 and Peugeot C2 and C3, this servo motor is a sought-after spare part by professional mechanics and DIY enthusiasts looking to maintain or restore the vehicle’s climate control functionality.
Function and Common Issues
The servo motor operates by adjusting the airflow through the heater core. Over time, due to wear or electrical faults, it may fail to respond correctly, leading to inconsistent heating or inability to switch between hot and cold air. Replacement is necessary to restore full heating performance.
Technicians usually replace the servo motor by accessing the dashboard’s HVAC assembly — a process that involves carefully removing panels to avoid damage. Routine maintenance and prompt replacement are recommended if symptoms like unusual noises or inconsistent cabin temperature control are noticed.
