Peugeot 307 Cruise Control Failure

My 2009 Peugeot 307 (gasoline engine) cruise control suddenly stopped working. I get an error message on the speedometer when I try to activate it, and the cruise control doesn't engage. An OBD2 scanner shows an error in the error memory related to the cruise control system. A defective cable or plug connection seems plausible. Has anyone encountered a similar problem? Any insights or troubleshooting tips?

I had a similar issue with my old Opel Corsa. The cruise control just died. Turned out the fuse box had some corrosion issues, messing with the car electronics. Maybe check your Peugeot's fuse box and all related connections? Could be a simple fix!

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll check the fuse box for any signs of corrosion or damage. When you say related connections, are you referring to the actuator or specific plugs in the engine compartment that might influence the cruise control? Also, where exactly is the fuse box located in the Corsa?

My Corsa issue was a corroded connector near the fuse box itself, causing the malfunction. I would recommend getting it checked out at a workshop. Trying to fix car electronics, especially with something as specific as cruise control, can be a real headache. If it is only a defective cable or plug, the repair should be relatively cheap.

Thanks for the advice! I had my Peugeot checked out, and it turned out to be a defective cable connection to the cruise control actuator, just as you suggested. After replacing the cable and cleaning the contact, the cruise control is working perfectly again. Repair cost was 95€. I appreciate your help!
