Traveller climate control failure

I've got a 2022 Peugeot Traveller (electric engine) with a climate control issue. Mileage is sitting at 123789 km. The climate control panel is completely dead. Error memory shows a fault, heating output is way too low, and the AC won't kick on. From what I can gather, it's likely a cable or plug connection problem. Has anyone else run into this?

Whoa, that sounds eerily familiar! I've got a Traveller too, though I can't recall the exact year. Had the SAME problem last winter. It's like the whole HVAC system just decided to take a vacation to the Bahamas. The dashboard was showing me error messages but no air. Any chance you've checked the temperature sensor? Seems like those electrical connectors are prone to getting loose, like when you're listening to your favorite song but the radio's connection is bad.

Interesting! Thanks for the quick reply. I was thinking of probing the power supply to the control panel. But where exactly did you find the faulty temperature sensor and electrical connectors on your Traveller?

Okay, so picture this: it’s like chasing a ghost through your dashboard. I'm no electrician, so I didn’t dare to touch anything. My intuition told me to visit the workshop. Honestly, I think it's best to get it checked by a professional, as you could cause further damage or risk voiding your warranty. It cost me 95€, but it was worth it for the peace of mind!

Appreciate the insight! Sounds like a trip to the workshop is the way to go. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Good morning, I am a Peugeot e-Traveller fully electric owner for a few months now. The vehicle has 8,000 kilometers and we have encountered problems with the air conditioning. I went to Peugeot, they discharged and recharged the AC with a tracer, but found no leaks. In fact, the air conditioning works for 2 minutes and then nothing comes out; only hot air. The Peugeot mechanic wants to update the various control units. If everything doesn't work afterwards, he wants to replace the air conditioning compressor. Obviously, it's under warranty. Has this problem happened to anyone else?? Thank you very much to anyone who replies.

Before proceeding with replacing the air conditioning compressor, it might be worth checking if the issue is related to the AC pressure sensor or the AC relay. These components can sometimes cause the AC to shut off prematurely. Since your vehicle is under warranty, it's best to let the dealership handle these checks. Keep us updated on the progress, and feel free to ask if you have any further questions!

Hi, yes tomorrow morning I'll call them, maybe the workshop foreman missed this possibility of the sensors, etc.. 😅😅

That's a good plan. Make sure to mention the AC pressure sensor and relay to the workshop foreman. These components can sometimes be overlooked but are crucial for proper AC function. Let us know how it goes, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have more questions!
