Traveller power steering issue

Hi, I've got a 2021 Peugeot Traveller with a diesel engine and I'm having power steering issues at 226706 km. The steering wheel vibrates, handling feels spongy, and I've got an error code. It's also getting harder to turn - feels like the power steering is failing. Could a defective cable or plug be the issue? Anyone else experienced similar?

Hey, I've got a Traveller too, and your symptoms sound familiar. Does it feel like you're fighting the wheel sometimes? Have you checked the hydraulic fluid level? A low level can cause some of those issues, but the error code suggests something more electrical. Is it constant or intermittent?

Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't checked the hydraulic fluid yet, will do that ASAP. And yes, fighting the wheel is a good way to describe it. The error is constant, unfortunately. Could a faulty connection really cause all this?

Yeah, a faulty connection can definitely cause those symptoms, especially with a constant error. I had a similar issue, and it turned out to be a corroded connector. But honestly, with a constant error and spongy handling, it's probably best to get it checked by a workshop. Could save you a lot of headache in the long run.

Thanks a lot for the advice! I checked the fluid, and it was fine. Took it to the workshop, and you were right, it was a defective plug connection. 95€ later, it's all sorted. Appreciate the help!
