Thalia defrost air distribution flap issue

I have a 2018 Renault Thalia diesel. Experiencing an issue with the defrost air distribution flap. There's an error stored, and the heating output seems way too low. Could a defective cable or plug connection cause this? Mileage is 93690 km.

Sounds familiar. I had a similar problem with my Thalia. Check the air distribution around the heater core, could be the HVAC unit or even the blower motor. Any weird noises coming from the climate control?

No weird noises, but it's good to know someone else has had the same issue. You mention checking the air distribution; is that something I can easily do myself, or does it require special tools? I'm not very experienced with car repairs.

Probably best to get it checked by a workshop. I tried fiddling with mine and ended up making it worse. The repair cost me about 95€. Maybe just save yourself the hassle.

Thanks. I was hoping it would be a simple fix, but I'll take your advice and bring it to a shop. That price actually sounds pretty reasonable, so that's good. I'll get them to check the connections like you said too.
