Primastar electric steering column malfunction

I have a 2013 Nissan Primastar diesel. The electric adjustment of the steering column isn't working. Error memory shows an error, and the steering column can no longer be adjusted electrically. I suspect a defective cable or plug connection. Has anyone experienced something similar?

Oh, electric steering columns... I feel your pain. Had a similar drama with my old Citroen C4 a few years back. Drove me nuts! Is the error consistent, or does it come and go? Have you checked the fuses? Sometimes it's the simplest things...

Thank you for your reply. The error is consistent, it's always there. I have checked the fuses, but unfortunately, they are all intact. What was the problem with your Citroen C4 in the end?

With the C4, it turned out to be a dodgy connection inside the column. Ended up being a workshop job, I couldn't get to it myself. If your fuses are good and the error's consistent, I'd say bite the bullet and get it checked out professionally. Saved me a lot of headaches!

Thank you for the advice! I took it to the workshop as suggested. It was indeed a defective plug connection, just as suspected. The repair cost 95€. I appreciate your help!
