Peugeot 2008 Rear AC Fault

My 2017 Peugeot 2008 with a gasoline engine has 82k km. The AC isn't cooling properly, especially in the back. A diagnostic shows an error related to the rear ventilation flap, and the climate control unit seems to be malfunctioning. I suspect a dodgy cable or plug connection to the flap motor. Has anyone had similar rear air distribution issues?

Summary of the thread

A 2017 Peugeot 2008 is experiencing issues with the rear AC not cooling properly, with a diagnostic indicating an error related to the rear ventilation flap and a malfunctioning climate control unit. The suspected cause is a faulty cable or plug connection to the flap motor. A similar issue in another vehicle was resolved by checking and repairing the wiring and connectors to the flap actuator, which was confirmed as the solution after a garage visit.

I had something similar with my old Renault Megane. The rear vents stopped working, and it turned out to be a faulty connection to the flap actuator. I didn't get an error code, but it made the AC pretty useless in the back. Have you checked the wiring and connectors to the flap motor?

Thanks! Where exactly is the flap motor located? I've had a quick look but couldn't pinpoint it. Is it easy to access, or do I need to dismantle half the interior?

On my Megane, it was buried behind the center console, a real pain to get to. Given yours is also a rear vent issue, it's probably in a similar spot. Honestly, unless you're super confident with car electrics, it might be worth getting a workshop to take a look. Could save you a lot of time and frustration.

Appreciate the advice! I took it to a local garage, and you were spot on. It was indeed a faulty connector to the flap actuator. They cleaned it up and replaced a damaged wire, all in for 95€.
