Change made on my vehicle, the ventilation was working at maximum without the possibility of turning it off. A very important point that is missing in the tutorial, when uncoupling the steering column it is absolutely necessary to block the steering wheel otherwise the angle sensor will be out of adjustment causing an ESP fault: switching to the suitcase is mandatory afterwards.

Hello, my Xsara Picasso has air conditioning and the fan doesn't turn at all. Does anyone have any idea where this could be coming from? Thanks.

We can't put back the screw that holds the column to the steering wheel.
