Another Blower Problem....might be slightly different?!

Unread post by jtownson »

Hi All,

My blower has stopped working on my 95 Citroen xantia when the engine is running. If the engine is not running and ignition is turned one notch the blower works fine - Is this the loose ignition connection problem or something different?

It used to be a bit intermittent and i used to "fix" it by turning the key even further when the enigne was running (bit dodgy i know as it made the starter motor fire) but now it wont work at all when the engine is on.

Thanks all

Hi and welcome to the forum :D

This is a well-konown Xantia problem. A duff ignition switch contact due to the heay current drawn by the blower motor...

There is a realy mod you can do to save replacing the switch.

All details will be found here.
