Citroen Relay Blower

Post by courierrelay »

Hello to all. It's my first post so hopefully I'm in the right section


My heater blower was only working on full blast and was told I needed a new heater blower resistor. After examination, the wiring loom to the resistor was also blown.
I bought one from ebay (could be the problem) and thought I could just match up the wires but the wiring seems to be different.
Can anyone lend any knowledge?

I'll upload some pictures

Thanks, Mark

No need to use a third party host for images, you can upload them directly to the forum, which avoids all the link issues which you are currently having.

Just go to the full editor, and at the bottom, choose attachments, add files and upload from your mobile or pc and place the image where you want it.

Can you pop up your VIN for me (it will be automatically hidden from public view) so I can check the wiring diagrams, then i might be able to help.

Ok, so this is all I have for the wiring:

Relay Blower Wiring.PNG
8050: blower motor (if separate)
8040: blower speed control (if separate)
3051: heater control panel lamp
8046: blower motor resistor (if separated)
So the Blower Motor Resistor has 4 wires shown , but it is the Blower Motor itself that has 5 wires.

Thanks for that Marc but to be honest I'm not really any more the wiser. Going by my pics I was hoping to just cut the wires and crimp in the new loom. Exactly the same black casing on my new one as the old, just the extra wire I cant figure out.

Cheers

In the van there's a separate live and neutral which plug straight onto the actual blower motor itself

Ok, so look at item 8050 - that is the actual blower motor and that has 2 wires. 78 goes to the Engine compartment fusebox. 67 goes to the blower speed control (8040) - wire (59) and also intersects the blower motor resistor (8046) at wire (58). Unfortunately the colours are not always reliable and there are none listed as you can see - so I can't help with the connections beyond this.

Also the added problem is that the 2-digit wiring numbers shown have no description :shock: even on the official diagram which is usless. Normally they would indicate which wire does what.
