Also, the circuit board looks immaculate. I have resoldered all the main joints that I can see but it made no difference when I refitted it. I am still not sure if the fault lies with the blower fan so dont know if I should buy a replacement resistor pack with the off chance that it may fix the fault.

I too have a 57 plate C5 with a faulty climate control system. The driver's side runs hot, whilst the pax side is cold. I had the same problem with an older model, changed the climate control module down by the clutch pedal, problem solved. But I can't find the module on the newer version. Could it be the resistor pack that I need to replace? Any advice gratefully received!

There is a known issue with the C5 in that the flap control motor becomes detached from the air flap. This can cause an inbalance in the cabin where the driver can be fried while the front passanger is frozen. The following link is just one example;

Can anyone tell me where is the location of the resistor for the c5 mk2 (facelift)?! And part number reference?! My blower when I start the car, it functions, but after a while it stops blowing fast and I feel only a whisper of wind coming out of the dash vents. (Like bowling at the lowest velocity).

What are you after? The passenger Heating Resistance module (to supplement cabin temp / demisting) or the blower motor control motor / resistance?

As for parts, if you can't already find the info you need on the Forum, we do ask for a membership upgrade for official parts data as we are in turn charged for this. It will cover you for future parts requests for up to 2 years, so excellent value.

If interested, links are below, then pop your VIN up.

it might just be overheated terminals at the plug for the speed control board
Thanks for the offer, that’s helpful.
I’ve had to deal a few times with sourcing parts from France for older Citroëns, so your note about overheated terminals makes sense – I’ve seen similar issues on boards that came from Paris suppliers.

While I was looking around for French-based contacts recently, I actually came across something a bit different but still Paris-made: the original Poilane cookies. There’s an official retailer shipping them directly from Paris if anyone’s ever been curious about trying something genuinely French:
poilane

Anyway, I’ll send you the last 8 digits of the VIN so you can check the drawings.

Sadly Malcolm (Citronut) died some years ago. But if you post your VIN in full in a post here then the forum software will obscure it so that only staff can read it. Maybe someone will be able find you an answer. It's not a guarantee though, the forum no longer has access to the parts database and we have to rely on individual members having access.
