Citroen C1 Lighting Fault

I'm having an electrical issue with my 2012 Citroen C1 gasoline. It's at 39541 km. The lights turn on randomly, and there's an error code. Could it be the light switch?

Hey! Sounds like what happened with my C1. Did you check the cable or plug connection? That's what caused my problem. Do your dashboard lights flicker when the lights switch on by themselves?

Thanks! I checked the cable and plug connections but didn't see anything obvious. I'll double-check. And yes, the dashboard lights do flicker sometimes. What fixed it for you?

Okay, flickering dashboard lights pretty much confirm it. A defective plug connector was causing a short for me. Unless you're really comfortable with electrics, a workshop is best. It cost me around 95€ for diagnosis, repair, a new connector, and labor.

Thanks for the advice! Based on your experience and the flickering lights, I'll take the Citroen to a workshop for a diagnosis and repair. I appreciate it!
