Peugeot 306 LX DT 1998 - Peugeot 306 heater repair - oilyrag2010

Hi there,

Currently replacing a burnt out heating control panel and wiring. Also trying to assess condition of matrix and resistor. I thought the matrix that sits under the bonnet was for the heater, but I have read that it is actually behind the fascia. I looked for the resistor in the passenger side compartment above the heater fan unit, but can't see anything there.

Can you confirm for me the exact location of both the heater fan and the matrix?

The heater matrix is enclosed in the heater box casing located behind the dash .Very little of it can be seen.The heater fan is located behind glovebox,access from pass footwell.The fan speed resistor is located at the top of the fan blower casing and access is from the engine bay,rear bulkhead area ,near wipers.There is usually a plastic cover over the scuttle panel.This is for a manual control system.The semi auto system is slightly different in as much as the fan speed controller is by the blower motor.hth
