Albea Weak Heat
Summary of the thread
A 2008 Fiat Albea with a gasoline engine is experiencing weak heat and has a stored error code. The issue is suspected to be related to the water valve. A similar problem was resolved by checking the cable and plug connection to the valve, which was found to be faulty. The solution involved having a technician repair the connection, resolving the weak heat issue.

Where exactly is that cable and plug connection? Want to check it out.

The connector is right on the valve itself, near the thermostat housing. But honestly, I'd just get it checked at a workshop. I tried fiddling with it, but ended up making it worse. Probably better to avoid a coolant leak.

Took it to a technician. It was the cable or plug connection. Total cost was 95€. Thanks!

Sounds familiar. I had something similar with my Albea. Check the cable and plug connection to the valve. Could be a dodgy connection. Had the same error code and weak heat. Worth a look before swapping parts.
