Peugeot 208 Low Heating Output

My Peugeot 208 (2021, gasoline) has a heating problem at 126040 km. The heating output is too low, and there's an error stored. Could this be a defective water valve?

I had a similar issue with my Opel Astra. The heating was weak, and it turned out to be a faulty thermostat housing causing inconsistent coolant flow. Check your coolant levels and look for any signs of leaks around the valve or its connections.

Thanks. You mentioned issues with the valve's connections. Could a defective cable or plug connection really be the cause?

In my case, the connections seemed fine at first glance, but a closer inspection revealed corrosion. However, given the error in your memory, a workshop visit might be unavoidable to properly diagnose the issue. They have the right tools to test the valve.

Thank you for your help. It was indeed the water valve; the cable connection was defective. Repair cost was 95€.
