Where is the blower fuse located in a Citroen C5?

The fuse is located at the very back of the left leg side storage compartment. You can see it after removing the storage box. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Displacement: The Dongfeng Citroen C5 comes with three engine options - 2.0L, 2.3L and 3.0L. The 2013 model added a 1.6T engine. The 2.0L model is available in both manual and automatic transmissions, while the 2.3L and 3.0L models are only available with automatic transmission. 2. Model: All three engines introduced for domestic production feature multi-valve design, with the 2.3L model being a China-exclusive launch. The C5 is positioned between grandeur, prestige and class, while incorporating dynamism, elegance and taste, bringing users a brand-new experience and value, leading the development trend of future mid-to-high-end sedans.
My old Citroën C5 had several issues with the blower fuse, mainly located in the large fuse box in the engine compartment or the small door panel box near the passenger footwell. The model varies by year—for example, the 2010 version might have it in the front left corner of the engine bay, while the 2015 model places it above the foot pedal. First, check the fuse diagram in your owner’s manual for the 20-amp point labeled "BLOWER" or "VENTILATEUR." The sticker on the cover provides guidance. If the blower stops working and the fuse blows, don’t just replace it—also check for wiring shorts or a faulty resistor, or the issue will recur. In my case, the repair shop found a loose connector after testing the circuit. Always remember to turn off the power and remove the key for safety before working on it.
I just dealt with the Citroën C5 blower fuse issue. It's usually found in the fuse box, typically the black box under the hood or the hidden panel below the steering wheel. I recommend opening the box and checking the diagram on the cover to locate the corresponding number. For Citroën models, the blower fuse is prone to failure at 20A or 25A positions. If you don't have the manual, take a photo and search online forums for tutorials—many C5 owners share detailed guides. When replacing, use a fuse of the same specification and don't exceed the rating. If the blower stops working, don't delay, as it can cause dangerous window fogging. Last time, mine short-circuited and burned out the resistor, but I fixed it in time.
The blower fuse location for the Citroën C5 varies by model year, typically found in the fuse box under the hood or dashboard. Avoid tampering randomly - open the cover and refer to the diagram to locate the blower symbol. Fuses are small and prone to blowing due to electrical issues. If blown, replace promptly with the same amperage rating and inspect the blower system.
