Peugeot 206 Damping Adjustment Fault

Hi, I have a 2010 Peugeot 206 with a gasoline engine. I'm getting an error stored and a warning light on the speedometer related to a damping adjustment fault. The ride is also noticeably bumpier. Mileage is 10814 km. Based on my research, the likely cause is a defective cable or plug connection. Any ideas?

Hey, I had a similar issue with my 206. Is it affecting it all the time, or just when you hit a bump? Was the error there immediately, or did it appear after hitting something?

Thanks for the reply. It seems to be affecting the ride all the time now, but I think the light originally came on after I hit a particularly bad pothole. Since then, the light has stayed on, but sometimes it disappears after restarting the car. I tried wiggling some of the cables, but nothing seemed to change. Does that sound like what you experienced?

Yep, sounds incredibly familiar. I messed around with it for ages before giving up. Best bet is to get the system checked in a workshop. They should be able to pinpoint the broken cable or the faulty connection fast.

Thanks for the help. I took it to the workshop, and you were spot on. It was a defective connector. Cost 95€ to repair. Appreciate the advice!
