Easy to fit? Clio 182 Climate Control Resistor Pack

[mcyates]

I need to change my resistor pack but I'd like to know how to remove it first before finding a scrap yard with one in. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank You

ps, i'm after one in the wanted forum if anyone has one for sale?

Shows you where it is on the 8th post and how many screws.
I did mine in ten minutes if that and im useless when it comes to cars.
Piss easy 2 screws if i remember rightly.
Try those 'breaking 182' on ebay they might have one cheaper and easily posted to you.

Thanks for your reply.

Is the resister pack the whole unit that that plug, plugs into?

I've emailed them two on ebay so hopefully might get something.

I've just used http://www.partsgateway.co.uk with what I need. They have now sent it of to people (scrap yards i think)

Just Renaults
Renault Specialists
Cit-Ren Ltd
RP Services
BG Motors Renault
Four Ashes Renault Specialists Ltd

Now I just have to sit and wait for a quote, won't come till Friday I don't think. Then another few days for postage.

Can the resistors not be replaced?

This is a common fault on MG's/Rovers and I've repaired 3 now. The resistors cost about £2.50 and it takes around 5 minutes with a soldering iron.

Well i'd have to have a look at it.

Does the whole unit have to come out?

Hoe do I know what resister to use?
