Peugeot 407 climate control issues

Hi, I'm having climate control issues with my 2005 Peugeot 407 diesel. The automatic temperature control has stopped working, and I'm getting an error code related to the interior temperature sensor. Also, the AC isn't switching on at all. I've checked the fuses, but they seem fine. Has anyone experienced anything similar?

Yep, sounds familiar! I had almost the same thing happen in my 407. The HVAC system went haywire. Have you had a diagnostics check done to confirm the sensor itself is the culprit? Any other weird electrical gremlins popping up?

Thanks for the quick response! I did a quick scan and it points to the interior temperature sensor. I'm wondering if it could be a simple fix, like a loose connection, or if the sensor is actually faulty. Where exactly is the sensor located in the 407?

Okay, since you already have a diagnostics check, I'd say inspect the sensor's wiring and connector first. It's often a corroded pin or chafed wire. But honestly, chasing those gremlins can be a pain. I ended up just taking mine to a reputable workshop. They confirmed the sensor and quoted me 95€ for the repair. Might be worth the peace of mind!

Thanks, that's really helpful! I'll check the wiring, but I think I'll follow your advice and get it checked out by a workshop. Sounds like it might save me some time and frustration. They also suspect a defective cable or plug connection. Much appreciated!
