Sun Blind Motor Failure

Hi, I'm having trouble with my 2018 Peugeot 3008 Hybrid (97512 km). The sun blind is stuck. It won't retract or extend, and my OBD scanner shows an error related to the sun blind motor. Sounds like the motor is defective. Has anyone else had this? I've been quoted 330€, so any advice would be great.

I had the exact same sun blind issue on my 3008. Same symptoms: stuck blind, error memory pointing to the motor. That's likely your problem too. Did you check the fuse for the sun blind motor, or try helping the blind to move? It might just be jammed.

Thanks! The fuse is fine. I tried to help it manually, but it feels like the motor is dead. Was the motor the problem for you, and did you fix it yourself? Trying to figure out how difficult the repair is.

Yes, the motor was the issue for me. Since the fuse is okay and manual assistance didn't work, it's probably a faulty motor. A skilled person might be able to replace it, but the mechanism is tricky to access. Considering the potential for damage and the 330€ quote, I'd advise going to a workshop.

Thanks for confirming it was the motor for you too. Sounds like it's best to leave it to the professionals. I'll book it in!
