How to Replace the Automatic Clutch Actuator on the Citroën C3 Sensodrive Gearbox?

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Transmission

To replace the automatic clutch actuator on the Citroën C3 Sensodrive gearbox, open the bonnet to access the components in the engine bay: here you will find the battery, which needs to be removed from its housing. Once it has been properly disconnected, locate the automatic actuator beneath its housing: it must be freed from the corresponding fixing screws and connectors. This will allow you to insert a new replacement part, and then refit the battery.
