Video tutorial

In this video, we see small tips for fixing five common issues on a Citroen Saxo: inside the cabin, the pipe that carries water to the windscreen wipers can easily come off. Simply reconnect it, or the wipers won't work when needed, and water will soak the upholstery inside the car. The second tip concerns repairing the cabin fan, located on the passenger side.

Start the vehicle and wiggle the wires to see if they have come loose.

If this system does not work, go to the driver's side where the fuses are located: there is a small black box which contains the relay that controls the fan; replace it and it should work again. If the indicators are not functioning, instead of changing the stalk, return to the fuse box where you will find a blue relay that controls the indicator lights.

You can change it yourself; but first, try gently sanding the contacts, which may be oxidised. It doesn't hurt to try! Of course, it could also be a blown bulb; if this doesn't work, check it. The last tip: if the horn is not working, the solution is to replace the button terminal and reconnect the wires.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
