Hi all great site!
Just a couple of questions, I have a 1995 Xantia 1.9TD and since I got it the heater blowers havent worked, i have checked fuse etc and all ok the blowers work sometimes, when turning ignition on the key has to be at a certain point and they will work but as soon as the key is moved in any direction they go off???
Any ideas would be great.
Also at what level is the LHM supposed to be?
Thanks in advance, Graham.

Welcome Graham!
1. Your ignition switch is burning out (it carries all the blower and heated rear window current and isn't man enough.) Simple enough to put a relay in, do a forum search and you should find plenty of info about how to do it.
2. With suspension in high the lower (or higher depending on who you ask - including Citroen!) disc on the indicator should be between the two red marks. As long as the level indicator moves off the top, and doesn't go flat on the bottom, the level will not be far off.
We'll soon have you up to changing the clutch pedal clip and heater matrix. Or buying a BX....!

Hmm reminds me of:
"Those whom the Gods destroy they first make mad"
In modern parlance...
When they are mad they then buy a Xantia.
Only real asylum cases buy a BX.
