Peugeot 5008 Electric Steering Fault

I'm having trouble with my 2010 Peugeot 5008 diesel. The electric steering column adjustment is defective. The error is stored in the error memory, and the steering column can no longer be adjusted electrically. I'm suspecting a defective cable or plug connection. Has anyone experienced something similar?

Summary of the thread

The 2010 Peugeot 5008 diesel has an issue with the electric steering column adjustment, which is suspected to be due to a defective cable or plug connection. A similar problem in another vehicle was caused by a corroded connector. The suggested solution involves checking fuses, relays, and wiring connections, with a recommendation to visit a workshop for a thorough inspection. The problem was confirmed to be a faulty connector, which was repaired at a workshop.

I had a similar issue with my old BMW 3 series, although the symptoms were slightly different. The electric steering adjustment failed completely. After some investigation, it turned out to be a corroded connector. Have you checked the obvious stuff like fuses and relays before diving in?

Thanks for the tip. You mentioned a corroded connector. Was it difficult to locate? Did it require any special tools?

It was a bit of a pain to find, to be honest. It was tucked away behind the dash. Didn't need any special tools, just a good light and some patience. Given your error code and the fact it's completely dead, it really does sound like a wiring fault. I'd advise visiting a workshop, it's not always easy to deal with all the electronics.

Thanks for the help! It turned out to be a faulty connector as suspected. Workshop confirmed it and the repair cost 95€. All working now.
