To replace the heating resistor on a Citroen C3, remove the plastic cover under the steering wheel by pulling it to release the plastic clips. Once the plastic under the steering wheel is removed, take off the plastic next to the accelerator by unscrewing the screw and releasing the plastic clips by pulling the plastic.

After removing the plastic next to the accelerator, you will find wires connected to a connector linked to a round cover; disconnect the connector and rotate it a quarter turn counterclockwise to remove it. After taking out the resistor, take the new resistor, position it in place of the old one, and follow the assembly procedure in reverse order.
