Description
Product Overview
The Fan Speed Regulator for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles is an essential component used to control the rotation speed of the engine cooling fan. By adjusting the fan’s speed, it ensures efficient cooling performance, prevents engine overheating, and contributes to optimal temperature regulation of the vehicle’s engine bay.
This part is commonly sought after by auto mechanics and DIY enthusiasts for its reliability and cost-effective replacement option when cooling issues arise. It is compatible with multiple PSA Group model vehicles, often referenced by specific product codes for easy identification.
Function and Application
The fan speed regulator controls the voltage supplied to the cooling fan motor, modulating its speed based on the engine temperature and air conditioning demands. This regulation helps maintain ideal engine operating temperatures, improving fuel efficiency and reducing wear on the engine and cooling system components.
Common reasons for regulator failure include electrical wear, exposure to heat, or moisture ingress, which can lead to fan malfunction resulting in engine overheating or excessive cooling fan noise.
Replacement typically involves accessing the fan assembly, disconnecting the faulty regulator, and installing the new unit. The process varies slightly between model years and engine types, so consulting the vehicle’s service manual is recommended for precise instructions.
