These applications are common in the South African market, but you still need to confirm the correct thermostat option by comparing the connector layout on your existing unit with the product photos.
Specifications
All options are thermostat with housing assemblies for the EP3 / EP3C 8FS 1.4 petrol engines listed above. They differ only by the number and style of temperature sensor connectors:
- TH1103 Thermostat with housing, one 4 pin sensor
- TH1105 Thermostat with housing, two 2 pin square sensors (2 x 2 pin square)
- TH1434 Thermostat with housing, two 2 pin square sensors (2 x 2 square pin sensor)
- TH1449 Thermostat with housing, two 2 pin square sensors (2 x 2 pin square sensors)
Important: connector shape, number of pins and sensor positions must match your original thermostat housing. Select the correct option using the images and your old part. Do not assume interchangeability between TH1103, TH1105, TH1434 and TH1449.

Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Before ordering, remove or clearly photograph your existing thermostat housing and count the number of sensors and connector pins. Match this to the pictures and SKU descriptions above.
- Do not force connectors to fit a different style housing; the wrong thermostat housing or sensor layout can cause incorrect temperature readings and fan operation.
- Have the cooling system drained and bled by a qualified technician familiar with Citroen and Peugeot EP engines.
- Always fit a new seal or O ring where required and ensure the mating surfaces are clean before tightening the housing.
- Refill with the correct specification coolant mixture and bleed the system to remove air pockets.
- After installation, monitor engine temperature and check for leaks around the thermostat housing and hose connections.
- Do not run the engine with straight water or very old coolant; overheating or corrosion in the system can damage the new thermostat housing and other components.
