Peugeot 5008 Rear Ventilation Issue

My 2010 Peugeot 5008 with a gasoline engine is giving me trouble. The rear ventilation seems busted! I'm getting an error code, the climate control is acting weird, and the AC doesn't cool in the back. I've checked some connections, but I'm no mechanic. Mileage is at 141164 km. Any ideas?

Sounds familiar. I've got a 5008 too, and I had something similar happen with the rear vents. Was it throwing a code related to the flap actuator? I remember the air circulation being off, especially for rear passengers. Did you check the plug connections to the actuator itself?

Flap actuator, huh? That's new to me! Where exactly is that located? And yeah, the error code seems to point to something in that area. The air circulation is completely off, and the kids are roasting in the back. Any pointers on where to start looking?

Yeah, the flap actuator controls the airflow to the rear. Honestly, finding it can be a pain. If you're not super confident, I'd say take it to a workshop. I ended up doing that, and they sorted it out pretty quickly. Could be a simple fix, like a loose connector, but it's a hassle to get to.

Thanks a lot for the advice! Sounds like I'm in over my head. I'll book it in at the shop and mention the flap actuator. They quoted me around 95€ for the repair, so hopefully, it's just a cable or plug like you said. Fingers crossed!
