Peugeot 407 Error Code

Hi, I'm having trouble with my 2005 Peugeot 407 (gasoline engine). I've got 190101 km on the clock. The car keeps throwing up an error code on the infotainment system and the speedometer display. I tried to reset the codes with a basic OBD-II scanner, but the engine light comes back on after a short drive. Any ideas?

Summary of the thread

A 2005 Peugeot 407 owner experienced persistent error codes on the infotainment and speedometer displays, which reappeared after attempts to reset them with a basic OBD-II scanner. The issue was identified as incorrect coding of a control module. The recommended solution was to visit a workshop with specialized diagnostic equipment to read Peugeot-specific codes, leading to the successful recoding of the ECU and resolution of the problem.

I had a similar issue with my 407. Does the error code relate to any specific system, like ABS or the fuel injection?

Thanks for the quick response! I'm not entirely sure. The scanner just gives me a generic fault code, nothing specific. Could it be a bigger issue?

In my case, the error was due to incorrect coding of one of the control modules. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop with diagnostic equipment that can properly read the Peugeot-specific codes. They should be able to pinpoint the exact cause.

Thanks for the advice! I took it to a mechanic, and you were right. It was a coding issue. They recoded the ECU and cleared the fault. Cost me 360€, but at least it's fixed now!
