Partner electrical malfunction

Hi, I have a 2009 Peugeot Partner with a gasoline engine. The onboard diagnostics system flagged an error, I'm seeing a general electrical malfunction, and the navigation system isn't working. Could this be a control unit programming issue? Anyone seen this before?

Whoa, sounds like your Peugeot's having a bad day! Electrical gremlins are the worst. Is everything else acting funky too? Like, are the lights dimming or the radio cutting out? Could be a simple glitch, or something more serious messing with the whole system.

Lights and radio are fine. It's just the error code, the navigation failure, and the 'general electrical malfunction' message. Any ideas on potential causes or where to look?

Right, if it's just those specific things, and not a total meltdown, it REALLY sounds like that control unit programming thing you mentioned. Honestly, it's beyond my pay grade. With modern cars being basically computers on wheels, software bugs are super common. You're probably looking at a recalibration or software reset. Best bet is a decent workshop with the right diagnostics tools.

Thanks for the advice. I'm taking it to a workshop for diagnostics and control unit recalibration. The estimated repair cost is 240€.
