The NRF Interior Blower Resistor (342086) is designed for automotive technicians and DIY mechanics looking to restore precise climate control to their Peugeot or Citroën vehicle. This 12V component acts as the critical bridge for regulating cabin fan speeds, ensuring your heating and air conditioning system operates across all settings; however, note that it is vehicle-specific and requires verifying compatibility with the original equipment (OE) part number 6441CQ before installation.

It regulates the fan speed of your vehicle's heating and air conditioning system by varying the electrical resistance provided to the blower motor.
This unit is designed as a replacement for OE number 6441CQ. Check your vehicle's service manual or the part number on your existing resistor to confirm compatibility with your Peugeot or Citroën.
Installation is generally straightforward for those comfortable with minor automotive repairs, though it requires access to the blower motor assembly which can be located in cramped quarters.
If your fan works on high but not lower speeds, the internal thermal fuse or resistor tracks inside the unit have likely failed. Replacing the resistor will fix this.
Usually, only a standard screwdriver or a socket wrench set is needed to access the resistor mounting screws.
This is a classic sign of a failed resistor board. Replacing with the NRF 342086 will restore lower speed functionality.
Check the blower motor fuse first, then inspect the 5-pin connector on the resistor for signs of heat damage or melted plastic.
Inspect the 5-pin port on the resistor for bent pins and ensure no debris is obstructing the harness connection.
Before beginning installation, ensure the vehicle ignition is switched off and the battery is disconnected to prevent short circuits. Locate the blower motor housing—often found behind the glove box or in the driver-side footwell depending on the specific vehicle model. Disconnect the old 5-pin harness, remove the mounting screws, and swap in the NRF 342086 unit. Always verify the connector pins for corrosion before plugging in the new resistor. Use only in vehicles cross-referenced with OE part number 6441CQ. No routine maintenance is required once installed, but keep the area around the blower motor free of debris to prevent the resistor from overheating.
