Bipper gear shift indicator problems

My 2010 Peugeot Bipper diesel with 187000 km has a gear shift indicator going crazy, flashing random gears. I can't engage gears properly, it's slipping, shifting rough, and sometimes grinding. Diagnostic shows the gear selection display isn't working. I suspect a defective control unit. Anyone seen this?

Sounds familiar. I had similar issues with my Bipper. Is the problem intermittent, or is it constant?

It's pretty much constant now. At first, it was just occasional flickering, but now the gear selection display is dead and the shifting is awful. Did you find out what caused yours and how much did it cost?

Yep, that’s exactly what happened to mine. It was indeed a faulty control unit. I'd say bite the bullet and take it to a workshop. It's not a DIY job unless you really know your stuff. Expect a hefty bill; mine was around 1000€.

Ugh, that's what I was afraid of. Thanks for confirming my suspicions! Looks like I'll be booking it in for a repair then. At least I know what to expect now. I appreciate your help!
