Used Peugeot 5008 Heater Motor

Yes, the Peugeot 5008 does have a heater motor (also called a blower motor or heater blower fan), which is the electric motor that pushes air through the cabin heating and ventilation system. It is fitted to all variants of the 5008 regardless of engine or trim level, so you should have no trouble sourcing one from a breaker. If your blower has stopped working or only works on certain speeds, this is the part you are most likely looking for.

The Peugeot 5008 ran as a first generation from 2009 to 2017, with the second generation launching in 2017 onwards, and these two generations are built on completely different platforms with different heating and ventilation systems. A heater motor from the first-generation 5008 is very unlikely to interchange with a second-generation car, so you should always tell your breaker which generation you have. Confirm the exact fit against your registration before ordering.

Yes, both a 2013 and a 2016 5008 fall within the first generation (2009–2017), so the heater motors are much more likely to be compatible with one another than with a second-generation car. However, there was a facelift of the first-generation 5008 around 2013, and it is worth confirming with the breaker that the part from the donor vehicle matches your registration, as minor revisions can affect connector types or mounting. Always quote your registration to the breaker to be sure.

Trim level does not generally affect heater motor fitment on the 5008 - whether your car is an Access, Active, Allure, GT Line, or GT, the blower motor itself is the same unit doing the same job. What can differ between trims is the climate control system (manual versus automatic air conditioning), and a car with dual-zone climate control may use a slightly different blower assembly than one with basic manual heating, so it is worth mentioning this to your breaker. Confirm against your registration to be certain you are getting the right unit.

The 3008 and 5008 share the same platform within their respective generations, and in some cases HVAC components including the heater motor can be shared between the two models. This is particularly worth exploring for first-generation cars (2009–2017), where the two models were closely related mechanically. However, you should not assume compatibility without checking - give the breaker both registrations and ask them to verify the part numbers match before purchasing.

If your heater blower only works on one speed (usually the highest), the most common cause is a failed heater resistor or blower motor resistor, which is a separate and much cheaper component than the heater motor itself. The motor is usually fine in this situation - it is the resistor that controls the lower fan speeds and burns out over time. Ask your breaker for the heater resistor rather than the full motor, and confirm it against your registration, as the resistor design can vary between generations and trim levels.
