so any help on where this is located would be very much appreciated  , it is an aircon model but not with the duel zone digital system , just the 3 dial swictches , t.i.a ,

Welcome to the forum.

 

The parts diagrams appear to show the control module at the left side of the heater unit, low down near the back below the water pipes. It may be Citroen part no. 6441T6 but you should check using your VIN. There is a note ' A)FOR VEHICLES EARLIER THAN 02/04/04 CUT HARNESS AND USE ADAPTER + BOLT' - the diagram shows it includes a wiring adaptor and a bolt.

 

There is one on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HEATER-BLOWER-RESISTOR-FOR-CITROEN-C5-01-04-6441T6-/220906056624

for £79.99 but from citroencarparts.net (a Peugeot dealer in Barrow) it is listed for £50.40 so a Citroen dealer may well be a lower cost than ebay.

 

To get to it I would think you only need to remove the sound proofing below the glovebox, as if you were replacing the pollen filter.
