Light switch problems with 2004 Peugeot 206 petrol engine with 122401 KM
(Translated from German)
Summary of the thread
A 2004 Peugeot 206 with 122401 KM is experiencing erratic light behavior, suspected to be due to a malfunctioning light switch. One suggestion is that the issue could be related to a defective control unit, which may require replacement. Another possibility is a worn-out combination switch, which can cause similar light malfunctions and might need replacing. Checking both the control unit and the combination switch could help resolve the problem.

Hi, thanks for your quick reply! It's amazing that you also had such a problem with the control unit. Do you remember how much you had to pay for the repair? And did you have similar problems afterwards or was the control unit really the culprit? Many thanks in advance!

Hello, yes, I still remember it well. The repair of the control unit did indeed cost me something. It was €1000 in repair costs, but everything has been fine since the repair. The thing with the limited function of the light switch? Yes, that was also fixed when I had the car at the mechanic. Since then, the lights haven't gone crazy and I haven't had any similar problems. That's what I wanted to tell you. Hope this helps you!

Hello, 1000 €?! That's quite a lot of money, but if it fixes the problems, then it's probably worth it. You've really helped and I feel a bit better already. I think I'll have my control unit checked too. Judging by your experience, that seems to be the problem quite often. Thanks for your help and advice!

Hello, I know the problem with the lights going crazy in older Peugeots. It was similar with mine, and it turned out that the light switch or the so-called "combination switch" was the cause. These switches can wear out over time and cause malfunctions. A common symptom is that the lights go on and off uncontrollably. After the replacement, everything was ok again.

Hi buddy, I experienced the same situation with my 2007 Peugeot 207 Diesel. First it was the lights, then other electronic components also began to function irregularly. The diagnosis was a defective control unit. This was quite a challenge because the control unit controls many important functions in the car. So it was actually a serious problem. In the end, the control unit had to be completely replaced. Hope that helps you a bit.
