Peugeot 308 Sun Blind Failure

Hi, I've got a 2023 Peugeot 308 (electric engine) with nearly 300k kilometers. The sun blind has gone haywire. It either won't retract/extend or gets completely stuck. I even checked the error memory and there's a fault stored related to it. Anyone else experienced similar issues? Could it be the motor?

Hey, I had something similar happen on my 308. Is it making any noise when you try to operate it? Mine did the same thing – stuck, no movement. Ended up being a pain, but fixable.

Thanks for the quick reply! Noise-wise, sometimes I hear a faint whirring sound, other times nothing at all. Was yours completely silent, or did you get the occasional noise too? And was it definitely the motor?

Yeah, faint whirring sounds familiar. I messed with it a bit, but honestly, it’s probably best to get it checked. My gut feeling is the motor is giving out. Saves you the headache. A friend told me that this UV protection is more important than people think, but that's another story.

Appreciate the advice! Sounds like a trip to the workshop is in order. Will get the motor checked out and hopefully that resolves it. The repair cost is around 330€ which isn't too bad. Thanks again!
