Citroen C2 overheating problem in traffic

Hello, I own a Citroen C2, model year 2007, with a gasoline engine and 130,000 km mileage. In the summer, my vehicle occasionally overheats, especially when I'm stuck in city traffic. The scanner indicates that the thermostat coolant control motor is defective (error code: P0598). Could this be the cause of the overheating problem? Also, I would be grateful if someone could tell me the correct part number for the thermostat. A repair manual would also be very helpful. My vehicle identification number is: VF7JMKFVC97491862. Thank you in advance for your support! Sincerely.

A Citroen C2 owner is experiencing overheating issues, particularly in city traffic, and a diagnostic scan reveals error code P0598, indicating a defective thermostat coolant control motor. This malfunction can lead to overheating if the thermostat is not operating correctly. The suggested solution is to inspect the thermostat and its electrical connections for damage or corrosion and replace the thermostat if necessary. For specific part numbers and a repair manual, contacting a Citroen dealership or using an online parts catalog with the vehicle's VIN is recommended.

The error code P0598 indicates an issue with the thermostat heater control circuit, which can indeed cause overheating if the thermostat is not functioning properly. Start by checking the thermostat and its electrical connections for any signs of damage or corrosion. If the thermostat is faulty, replacing it should help resolve the overheating issue. For the correct part number and a repair manual, I recommend contacting a Citroen dealership or checking an online parts catalog using your VIN. Also kindly do share your personal information like VIN numbers. Please let me know if you have any further questions or if you need more assistance after checking the thermostat.
