Peugeot 107 Heater Blower Motor Replacement, Toyota Aygo, Citroen C1. CityBug
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2019
- The Blower Motor was sticking, & getting noisy, it was time to replace the motor.
This is not an easy job on a right hand drive vehicle, the clutch pedal and steering column get in the way. if yours is automatic, or left hand drive happy days.
so enjoy watching me struggle trying to figure this one, as there is not much information out there on this job.
I have posted a follow up video with some more tips and answers to some questions from the comments, thanks • Follow-up Video Peugeo...

Can't find a better mechanic on UA-cam for these little city cars! Never mind the labour you put in but the camera work and voice over work is second to none too!!! Please keep them coming I will definitely watch and like👌👍
Thanks for the great comments 👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I can’t express how much this video helped. I had exactly the same job and the same problems. I tried initially on 23rd Dec, having watched other videos, but gave up. I finally found your video and completed the job today. Same issues as you - hands cut to pieces, difficulty removing clutch assembly, struggle to remove the old blower and lots of time trying to fit the new blower. Many thanks, but never again. 😂
Well done!! Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
A family member just got a 12 plate Aygo and has this exact issue. This video will make my life massively easier! Can’t praise you enough for making this video 🙏
Glad it helped! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Did this on a citroen c1 yesterday, would not have tackled it without your step by step video,thanks for going to the time and trouble of putting this on YT
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I cut a section out of the air duct above the fan. No need to remove clutch brackets or cable. Just the one mobiliser box. Thanks for the video, cant believe what a nightmare job it is. Managed to get second hand fan from E BAY. (£35) Fitted , now all good.
Great tip!, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I am a Syrian , I have the same type of car. , If I got the same this problem, I will just sell my car ,you are a hero.
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Can confirm that the left hand drive is way easier. Getting the motor back was a pain in the ass tho!
Cheers for the awesome video
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Anton. This video is amazing. Thanks a lot. With these extra steps (5 minutes) , you get get all the room you need without the horrid wiggling and risk of damaging your new motor:
(1) Remove clutch mount, plates and pedal
(1a) Remove clutch plate under driver footwell (as the video shows)
(1b) Remove clutch mounting bracket (as the video shows)
(1c) NEW. Lift the clutch mounting bracket and pedal out the top of dash and completely away, disconnect the clutch switch on the way out.
(2) NEW. Move cable loom out of the way
(2a) NEW. Undo (or cut) cable tie on loom going from firewall to binnacle
(2b) NEW. Remove cable tidy plastic bracket from the metal bracket and push to driver side (10mm self tap bolt)
(2c) NEW. Undo all cable connectors from the binnacle that come into the cluster from the firewall - push the cable bundle with the connector ends down hole where clutch pedal was removed
With the steering column dropped, you now have everything out of the way and a motor-sized space to get them swapped - no wriggling, bags of room.
Thanks david for the great information and taking the time to post👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks for this comment, was a massive help!
Previous mechanic had done this job and I assumed just forced the motor through the gap and had cracked the fan part was making an absolute racket inside the car when turned on. He complained and they just gave him his money back and refused to put it right. So here I am fixing other peoples mistakes again. This comment and the video helped a lot!
Thanks to both of you! Perfect!
Anton, I am dreading a repair!! How much would it cost to have this done on my 107?
Thanks for the additional pointers David! May just add (for anyone else reading this) that 1C should be done after all other steps in this video, otherwise getting the clutch pedal out of the top of the dash is an absolute pain in the arse!
Thanks for the informative, detailed video showing the heater blower replacement. I did the wife's 107 this weekend, with great success. The replacement was an EIS pattern item from Euro carparts. Incidentally it was 10mm shorter in height, making installation easier. The only fly in the ointment is that since reassembly, the airbag warning light now flashes! Probably have to get it hooked up to a code reader. Thanks again. 👍
Just check the connector to the air bag and reset with a code reader, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Replaced my blower motor yesterday calling many profanities throughout the process. I'd like to say a special thank you to Anton because without this video I would not have a clue how to do this. It's saved me a few queen heads too. Keep up the quality content.
great job, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
A big thanks to you Anton, with the aid of your video I saved a fortune and completed the job perfectly and without cutting the airbox, I fancy doing another 1 now!
Glad I could help! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Welcome to do mine, I really don't know if I can be bothered with this
I've just replaced the blower in my Citroen C1. I could not have done it without your video. Your video is wonderful! It took me around 15 hours over 3 days. I had to break the old blower into 2 pieces to get it out (even with the clutch pedal and bracket removed). Fortunately the cover/mount of the new blower was held together with 3 screws, so I could separate it, put the 2 pieces in and then assemble it in situ. Great video. Thank you.
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thank you so much mate! We live in Sweden and our heater blower motor gave up. You literally saved us about 500 quid on just labour costs. Part was so cheap. So cheers!
Edit: and winter is creeping up on us day by day and this fix was necessary! Ours is a left hand drive so the part just came out without all the hassle 😀
Glad I could help, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Many many thanks Anton! Changed my C1's blower - took 4-5 hrs. Would never have been able to do this without your video
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Just done my 107! Thanks for the video/help - it was better than a Haynes Manual could ever be! I hacksawed the back right off the heater and then easy to superglue back on. Made it easy getting the blower out and the new one in.
well done, that does seem to be the best hack, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great video I did a Citroen c1 yesterday and watching this video first really helped and the commentary was brilliant it made the job 10 times easier
Glad it helped Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Anton, thanks so much for this video! I did the fan replacement on my Aygo a couple of weeks ago and couldn't have done it without this video. One tip for others attempting this - I struggled with getting the clutch cable disconnected and was worried that if I did get it off, I wouldn't be able to get it back on again. I got someone to press the clutch pedal in all the way, then I jammed the clutch arm on the gearbox using a screwdriver. When the pedal is released, there is no tension in the clutch cable at all, and it can be unhooked much easier. About to do the front disc and pads and will be referring to your videos on this too! Thanks again 🙂
Happy to help, these cars are great to work on, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I followed this video repairing my left sitet 107. Thanks to this I did the job in 2 hours and 7 min. Thanks a lot
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
netherlands here: we enjoyed your video highly. we had a beer and a laugh, and loved your patience.hopefully next weekend we've the same. then tinkering on our son C1. Groetjes Taeke and Maria.
Have fun! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
My blower was making an identical noise. I followed your video to the point of trying to get it out then I reached inside the back of the heater and found a piece of sandpaper! No more noisy heater. I am glad I did this before actually getting the motor out of the tiny little gap
great spot well done Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Just done this today. 1.5 hours to get it out, 2 hours to put new one in and reassemble everything. I'm sure it would have been twice that without learning all the top tips from your video. 👍👏
Nice work! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thank you so much for detailed video that gave me the confidence to tackle my myself after local garage quoted £800! Successfully completed for less than £100. Brilliant
Well done, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Mate you saved me loads of time!!! Getting the replacement in is most harder than getting the knackered one out!!! Thanks for the video.
Glad it helped Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
This video really helped me twice, I had to do the job a second time when the new fan failed after 6 months, still waiting for warranty claim to be settled. Really useful, honest work thru' . Thanks.
Glad it helped, Twice is a real pain Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
t
Just did this job following how you did it. It’s taken me 2 hours thanks very much 🎉
Nice work! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Excellent video.. especially naming the 1/4" rachet, universal joint, 2 exension bars and a deep reach 12mm socket. I went straight to tool shop, bought the exact bits i was short of, and was able to remove that pesky bottom clutch pedal bracket nut without too much trouble. It's impossible to remove otherwise.
I did cut the corner of the heater box, which saved me dropping the steering column. Glued it back solidly with upvc mitre bond in an instant. Still took me about 5 hours but saved me over £500. Thanks a million.
Well done great repair, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
It was not easy with left hand drive either but eventually I got it together. Just keep pushing!
Great video man, always appreciated!
Nice work! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
With your video and the comments complete the job in around 1hr 15mins, I cut away the corner of the heater box which meant you didn’t need to drop the steering column. Re-fixed the heater box and job done. Much appreciated and save me hundreds doing it myself. Thanks
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 no thank you for the video, It also meant you could loosen the clutch but not have to remove it fully, only have it loose to move it to the right,
You my friend have saved me a ton of money. Having watched your video about 4 times for the past 3 months finally plucked up the courage to give it a go. The fact you struggled actually helped me as I knew it would be a pain in the ass from the onset. I took your advice and cut a corner of the air intake away and dropped the clutch pedal. Also took the opportunity to change the fan resister why the dash was out.
Works a dream. Thanks again.
For anyone reading interested ,my fan would work intermittently and also worked when I removed it on the bench. Seems the bearings were on their way out so when it stopped the motor didn’t have enough power to initially overcame the slight resistance from the worn bearings .
Well done great job Chris, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Did you only need to cut the corner and drop the clutch, or did you need to also do the steering column etc as in the video?
@@wiganer9912 that’s right, just nipped a bit off the corner and took the clutch bracket off. Still a pig of a job but saved a fortune taking it somewhere to be done.
@@chriscrook7511 Thanks, gonna finally have to give this a go, just been taking the dash off and squirting wd40 in there, that's been working for 6 months but time to bite the bullet especially as its just passed its mot.
@@wiganer9912 p
Thank you for this video. I've just finished doing the change. I got the dash back together, reached to get the speaker covers....and saw a black box. Only left the immobilizer off 😂🤣😂😂
Dam 😳, not to difficult to pop it off again, well done for the repair, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Brilliant! Just followed your video to replace the blower motor on my daughters C1.
Glad it helped, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Fantastic video and made my life a little easier.
Don’t forget to make yourself a shadow board (piece of cardboard) and label each piece so you remember where each nut and bolt came from.
Glad it helped! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Brilliant video, my heater packed in a few weeks ago and this video has helped me in deciding just to sell the car lol, seriously though thank you so much for your time in helping us all.
Glad it helped, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I did this today, I got it down to 2 hours using your video biggest ball ache is getting that motor in
Thank you
well done you must be like billy whizz Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Was that with disconnecting the clutch pedal too?
Wow!!!! Thank you so very much for this amazing video. Having realized that this was so involved I was on the verge of looking for a new car. But I thought I’m going to have a go.
Your video is an absolute lifesaver, I can’t thank you enough, it’s step by step guide made me have the confidence to have a go. It worked and was just as you said it would be. 5 hours later and it has all gone back together with just one washer left over, that can’t be important.
I am so grateful to you, thank you!!!!,
Wonderful! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Brilliant video and commentary aaanton, Im probably starting tomorrow fitting after market locking and power windows to my wifes C1, I may not have to go so far as you on the dash strip down, however, you have shown how to gain lots of access for wiring and control boxes, well done mate.
Good luck, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Massive thank you, just today replaced my neighbours blower and resistor and it’s a pest to do when you have some good info never mind going in blind!
Ironically the clutch bracket bolts were easy to take off as the original blower gave access, the Valeo replacement was in the way during the refit!
Again many thanks, took me just shy of 4 hours with a tea break and swear fest 😀
Glad it helped Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Had the same job in at work today this video made my life so much easier only thing i did differently was remove the clutch pedal from the bracket and removed in 2 pieces this made it slightly easier to access the bolts
Glad it helped, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
This video definitely saved me many hours of frustration! It was still a pig to do but this made it much easier, cheers!
Glad it helped! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
You have great patience. Great the way you stay so relaxed. I am thinking about changing my Toyota Yaris for a new Toyota Aygo. Just hope that if I do the heat blower never packs up!
it is not a common fault, that's why this was the first one I have attempted, the new aygo looks great, a proven track record Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠.
Thank you for your video - it's great.
My son and I managed to replace the blower motor in about 3 1/2 hours.
But fortunately I’ve a left-hand drive vehicle, so that the clutch pedal and steering column don’t get in the way.
But it’s anyway a challenge to replace the blower motor, because the gap for replacing is very scarce.
So the solution was to cut out the insulation in the range, where it hinders moving the motor.
After replacement the cut-out insulation can be reinstalled witch two-sided adhesive tape.
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Just did the job myself! Took me 5 hours too but that involved an hour or fucking about, as I had to go with the “rough and ready” method you stated in your follow up video by cutting a piece of the vent plastic out. Couldn’t for the life of my get the blower motor past the clutch pedal and the wiring loom above the steering column. I did everything the same as you but I couldn’t see the exact position you put the clutch pedal in, so that may have been my problem. Removing the piece of plastic makes it HUGELY easier. You still need to drop the clutch pedal, but this way you just lift the motor straight up and out. Regardless though, it’s done, and now my sister has a functioning blower motor! Thanks again, your video was a god send!
magic well done Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Just doing my daughters and this has been so helpful! Also loved your own commentary 😂 thank you sir 👍
Glad I could help! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks Anton, following your video helped me to replace the fan in our Aygo, it would have been so smooth and easy if only I hadn't forgotten to reconnect the central locking module under the dash DOH!
Glad it helped, I have left plenty of things over the years we are only human easy to put right, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks ! You saved my bacon today. Garage refused to help (covid) . With tutorial job done in 5 minutes.
Glad it helped! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I have one of these ...praying it wont go wrong. But you have explained it well.so I would give it a go..I followed your advice on the rear wheel bearing that was a success, thanks,..keep up these great videos.
Thanks for the great comments 👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great video, wish I thought to check into UA-cam before I did this job yesterday,every step you did was spot on and it took me 4 to 5 hours too
I'm going to add to your video some tips if anyone's reading and you basically mentioned them anyway
disconnect the key reader wire
be careful doing up speaker tappers with metal ratchets as it's easy to smack and break the screen
check the motor works before building everything up
cut down the heater box top with sidecuts to get motor in, only like 1mm needed
I disconnected clutch cable on gearbox for safety of my finger's
remember to connect up the passenger airbag or car needs a scan tool to remove airbag light on dash
I dropped all dash down to remove bottom left clutch box bolt with about 5. 1/4 inch extensions to left of steering wheel,you did it differently but I found it near impossible your way,but well done
the black box you undid on top of steering wheel is the central locking module not the immobilisor
enjoyed your video,take care,oh and getsome mechanics gloves😀👍👍
Great Job, Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks for this great video. Having looked at your video and explenation it only took me 1 hour and 10 minutes to replace succesfully the fan. I have to say that I had a Aygo automaat . But having see how to remove the whole dashboard was great. These kind of video's are like following the head man climbing a unknown mountain. Once the dashboad was removed , it was clear where the fan was situated . Thanks!!!
You are fast!! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Many thanks for the video. Not sure I would have kept going without it. 👍
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Finally did this today, this video was a great help, it took me 5 hours, the hardest part was putting that ''stupid'' bracket back on that stops the clutch pedal in an accident, I also unplugged the flimsy transponder wire because I just know I would have snapped it because that's how I roll. If anyone wants to have a go at this, then this video is spot on!!!!! I can't find the bottom bolt off the right-hand side of the clutch pedal though, but like I said, that's how I roll.
Well done Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Excellent, I could not have changed the motor without having been educated by this vidoe.
Well done!! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Many thanks for this video helped a lot in replacing the Blower motor. I went for a spurious copy part at £32.
Couple of things I noticed that might help others, before you fully engage the new motor in housing start the nut on the upper fixing stud I could not get it on with motor in place.
Also make sure you look carefully how the clutch pedal safety plate is fitted when you remove it and replace it before attaching the clutch cable to the pedal.
Suggest testing fan whilst dash is still out before putting it all back together.
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I got to the point where I need to take those 2 clutch bracket bolts off, got the top one off with a spanner but don't have a socket set with all the bits you used. Great video though and happy that I managed to get everything else off up to this point with the video's help. Got a mechanic mate coming round to help me tomorrow :)
dam shame you couldn't finish the job, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I need to replace A\C button and this video is really useful. Thank you very much.
Glad it helped, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Here's the blower motor/heater core/evaporator. Now build the rest of the car around it. Thanks for the video, filming it must have made the job even longer. Going to ensure I always keep my blower on low speed 😆
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I was winging on my own got up to dropping steering down, yes seeing your vid just speeded up the last hour, but yes I was on 5 hours up til then, many thanks
Well done, great job, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thank you so much for this video I would never been able to do this job without it
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
If just done this job on my daughter's c1 and yes its A pig of a job . I followed this video for reference and it was so much easier thanks to your great video . Big key for everyone is taking the protective shield off the steering column it that that gives you the room to move the clutch bracket enough to get that sucker out ? . Took me about 4 hrs with a tea break .
Yorkshire tea and chocolate hobnobs I hope 😂 great job, Love to hear about a great repair Thanks David for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great video
I was looking at my aunties C1, I thought could it be a fuse, I checked every single one, I thought could it be a heat resistant transistor or a motor, before I got too far, I thought this looked tricky. Well I'm just a tinkerer, before I make a mess I call my garage, they might have a nack for getting in to these things, well after fiddling for hours, my garage said it was a days job to change the motor. After seeing this video one if I had the time I think I could do it, but I totally understand why my garage said how difficult it was, well done for producing this video and shame on the joint Japanese (drive on the same side of the road as UK) and French designers of this car.
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great video, thank you. Helped me replace my broken aygo key case. Also tried to use the original back but it didn't fit, helped to see this on the video too.
Glad it helped Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Just completed this job today on my daughter’s Citroen C1. Took me best part of 6 hours. On a rhd car you must take off the clutch pedal (4 bolts) but then you cannot remove it with the heater motor still in the way. My solution was to break up the old motor casing (plastic) and this made removal easy. I then removed the clutch pedal from the top (not that easy), cut back the sound insulation in the bulkhead and was able to drop the new motor in (honestly fairly easy). Putting the clutch pedal back, reconnecting the clutch cable and putting everything back all takes time.
Well done sounds like you had fun but you do get a great sense of achievement when you complete this job Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks alot for this detailed video, my blower gave up 2 days ago, and winter is comming very soon, luckily i have a another aygo i take parts from, and I live in sweden so we drive on left side, so this should be easy👌
Glad it helped Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 on my way to fix it now, hopefully it goes smooth😅 but as always when fixing on cars there is always struggle😮💨
Just swapped my one today. Couldn't do it for a month as the weather was so bad on the weekend and was dark after work. I cycle to work so it wasn't much of a bother. The times I had to drive I got a wiper for the inside window haha. Thanks for the video my one was a LHD so alot less steps for me.
Well Done, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Excellent video thanks I have to change the heater resistor on my daughters car glad the motor is ok only working on full speed
Glad it helped, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Just did this in ~3 hours on a left hand drive Peugeot 107. Does indeed have a lot more space to get the blower out, however still tight. To anyone who is considering doing this themselves, I can recommend it, as it was doable
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I like all videos
Thanks! I also say :" HALLELUYAH ONLY When i see how much work you did
I like you too 👌 Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great video. Wish you'd published this a year ago as I did the exact same thing. I had similar blower issue where it made that noise and eventually stopped working. Just a word of caution don't assume it's the blower motor as after I replaced it with a new one it still didn't work. Turned out to be the fan speed switch so I'd recommend checking the blower is getting power first. Would have saved me a day doubled over in the footwell cursing the car designers.
Thanks Fraze for the great information, usually the fan will work on max but not on 1,2,3 if the resistor is gone or not at all if the motor\switch/fuse failed👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Wow, not for the faint hearted! Excellent job!
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great video many idea how I can access the Electric Power Steering control unit. It’s behind the coverings by the drivers right knee ?
its in this video, you can see it Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Amazing video!! Awesome job man
Glad you enjoyed it!, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Fantastic workmanship . I have the c1 witch keeps blowing headlight bulbs . I drove my car to citroen and they told me my timing chain needs replacing. Its only covered 60.000 miles went for a second opinion and was told the alternator had gone. Go figure
Or you might have unbranded bulbs, could be the alternator overcharging, but that would blow other bulbs as well, definitely not the timing chain, thanks for the great comments 👍🏻👍🏻🛠
This video helped me allot. Than you :). My blower did run some times when I hit the dashboard, so I know it was a motor error. Since I did not have a new motor I hoped to fix it. To separate the fan from the motor, use a hammer and hit the senter pin. Use a screwdriver to drive it trough. Then remove the plast clips and take out the motor form the plastic. My problem was that the sliding brush had got stuck. Removing the small metal clip and take out the spring. Then test that the connector slides freely. Put every thing back and viola you have a working blower. PS some trouble to get out the fan on a left side drive car, but did not need to remove clutch etc.
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Brilliant video Anton, entertaining to watch too, you are a star.
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 I do not know how you can work with that beast of a watch on lol .

Ok I am going to attempt this soon, just ordered some 1/4 inch extensions and universal joint for the fiddly bit, just one question, did you disconnect the battery before you unplugged the airbag?
No I like to leave the battery connected, can cause all sorts of issues if it is disconnected, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great set of guides, thanks. I have a 107, when the weather is really hot the blower won't work. Sometimes when the engine is on and you turn blower on full it will slowly turn the after a few seconds will gather speed, at which point it works fine at all speeds. Does anyone know what I should check out? Thanks, wanting to avoid the blower being replaced after watching this. The blower works well in normal weather. Thanks
The motor needs changing, 😩 99% that's your issue, give it a bash Justin you can do it, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
What size mole grips did you use to remove the clutch cable?
The small one in this set, amzn.to/2Y5zXfP Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hi ant have you ever tried to remove the grey heather switch cover plate front, that sits under the radio as daughters light has blown and would like to fix it, i take that you would have to move the heater slides not sure what to call them one on each side of the grey front cover that you use to adjust settings for the blower apart from that not sure what to do next thanks.
I have not done this repair, but it one on the list to do and make a video stay tuned 😂Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thx for this i am glad i have left steering much Easyer !! Thx for The video 🙏🏼🙏🏼 took me 2-3 hours

Per watching your quality productions on the Toyota Aygo model, mk1 in particular relation to 2009 ones. As i mentioned to you on another feed, I've just bought one. Is their suppose to be a black rubber weather shield seal length between the top of front bumper where it seats with bottom edge of the bonnet? Mine hasn't, yet I've seen others out and about that do have the piece. Do you know a part number for it please? Great videos! x
Thanks Charlene, that is a main dealer part, or you might get one off eBay, I suspect it’s the scuttle panel you need, thanks for the great comments 👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 is the scuttle where the wiper is? I'm talking about the seal below the badge at the bonnet & bumper joint x
Mate I take my hat off to you for this video made my life so easy but what a job it was 😢
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
If i just need to replace a blower resistor in my Aygo '07, do i still need to go through the long process above? (I have a common problem where my blower only works at the max 4th setting).
no just take the dash top off like in the video and you can see the resistor, I point it out in the video, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great work. Many thanks from Sweden 👍
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@aaanton11 My blower motor comes on sporadically but can't find the point of fault so instead of buying a new one, I'm planning on bypassing the car systems and gerry rigging it to the battery with a switch... would this work? Do you have any advice about how to go about doing this? Cheers and great videos, mate👍
I would go to the blower resistor, volt drop test the feed, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I solved your problem with not getting the fan out. Your steering wheel is on the right. When items on the left u can just pop it out. Just did mine. It fibrated loose and the fan got jammed😁
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Im so happy my steer is on the left :)
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Or steer is in the barn :-)
Hi Anton, not sure if you'll get this but thought I'd try. I decided to take the Aygo to a garage to do this as they quoted me 2.5 hours. In the end it took them all day! When I got the car back the blower fan was working (ie you could hear it spinning) but there was no air coming out any of the vents. They can't work out what they've done wrong. Do you have any ideas? Many thanks, Paul
If they ended up cutting the air box it might not be circulating correctly, or the cap for the pollen filter might be missing, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hey Anton, I have a citroen c1 rhythm 2007 and was wondering if you knew if these motors have a pollen filter, because I bought one thinking I would need to replace it as its never been done to realize there is no opening or catch as shown in your video. Does it only come with AC versions or is it hidden somewhere else? Thanks
the non ac models don't have a filter, but it is possible to retro fit one, I will look into doing a video when I come across one, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks for the information. Kind regards.

Now contemplating wearing a coat when winter comes 🤣🤣 Aygo my first car 6 years ago engine drank more oil that petrol and the aux belt snapped ! Did engine change and gave to my little sister as her first car ! Just bought it back for £200 needs blow heater new shocks on the back and a bearing done ! Then I'll be doing some spray work and interior modification ! Some better speakers and fitting an Aframe
try cutting the heater box out it will save some work if you don't fancy the full strip down, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
amazing quality video 💥 super helpful thank you
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Iv got to attempt to change the blower motor on a 2007 Aygo automatic, should I be able to get it out a lot easier and not need to drop the steering column etc thanks
Yes it will be much easier, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
And you said theses are great cars to work on !
Don’t 😂 thanks for the great comments 👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great video. Have you decided on the quickest way to do this? Has the clutch pedal GOT to be disconnected to would there be enough space without? That looked the worst bit!
the quickest way is to cut the heater unit open, I like the comment on removing the power steering motor, but as I have not tried these methods not 100% Thanks Carl for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Your brilliant videos have helped me to decide on a C1, 107 or Aygo as a first car for my daughter. Your videos cover most of the likely issues an owner could encounter. One topic I haven't found on UA-cam is cleaning the AC system to get rid of bad smells. I assume that the AC on these citybug cars have the same long term problems as any car AC. Any chance you could do one or point me in the right direction? I'm thinking of cleansing the evaporator area in particular as I think its quite buried in the dash, I think this is where the air is cooled. Many thanks for your videos.
This is a fantastic product, after replacing the pollen filter crack a can of this off in the car and leave for 20 mins amzn.to/30yyxeZ
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I’ve watched the link in the description, think I agree with you, there’s no way you would separate the fan while in the car, I’ll stick with your original method. Just ordered a new fan with Euro car parts, can’t wait till tomorrow 😬😬
good luck Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great to work on.....
Ohh😉 excellent video thanks so much for the upload. 😎
Glad you enjoyed it Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I could not believe how much easier it was to get the motor out and the new one in just by cutting the corner off the heating box above the motor as well. A 3 inch by 3 inch piece cut with a hacksaw blade, easy to do. All in all, a real pain in the backside job.
Well Done! Thanks for the great information Steve👍🏻👍🏻🛠
