#3: Re: Heater not working Author: Ben750, Location: West YorksPosted: Sat Feb 26, 2011 4:49 am ---- If it happened straight after fitting the stereo, I would guess you've disturbed some wiring in the dash.

#5: Re: Heater not working Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Sat Feb 26, 2011 8:16 am ---- Either:
You have knocked a wire when refitting the stereo ( very possible seeing where the blower lives )
Blown a fuse in either of the fuse boxe's ( there's 2, BSI in the cabin & the BM34 under the bonnet )
The blower motor has died
You damaged the BSI in someone / crashed part of the software / corrupted the configuration.
Remember it's a 206, the blower motor only works with the engine running

very annoying. How hard would it be to change this?
Also there is a big plug under the glove box. try that mine has a bad connection and stops the heater from working.

PSA Peugeot / Citroen did this for a reason.
It drains the battery.
If the engine isnt running then no heat is being produced to heat the cabin.
On the older PSA stuff with the first generation climate control systems it was bloody annoying having the blower motor suddenly burst in to full speed as soon as the ignition was turned on, it really p**sed me off when I had the 406
There is NO point having a heater blower motor running unless the engine is.

Well there is. Its only spinning a fan so i doubt it uses that much power. The water in the heater matrix is still hot for quite some time after the engine is off; the heater would still work for a fair while before it went cold like it does in many other cars.

I agree. For example, cars warmed up. You stop and turn off the engine. Windows steam up, instead of starting the car, you just use the motor. Simples.
