I’ve been experiencing some frustrating issues with the electric traction system in my Peugeot, particularly on my e-208. The warning light keeps flashing, and the system seems to lose power intermittently. Has anyone else faced similar issues?
Here are a few details:
Model: Peugeot e-208
Symptoms: Warning light activation, power loss
Checked so far: Fuses, battery connections, and software updates (all seem good)
I’m looking for any advice on troubleshooting or potential fixes. Is this a common issue with Peugeot’s electric models, like the e-2008 or hybrid 3008? Any insights from your experiences or recommendations for repairs would be greatly appreciated!
I’ve been experiencing erratic power delivery in my Peugeot since last month. Sometimes it feels like the electric traction just cuts out for a second. Anyone else having similar issues?
Yes, I’ve seen that warning too, @freymegan. It often indicates a problem with the electric traction system. You might want to take it to a mechanic soon before it worsens!
My car hesitates a lot when accelerating, and sometimes it doesn’t respond at all. Is it possible this is related to the electric traction system? Any thoughts?
I’d suggest pulling over safely and turning off the vehicle for a few minutes, @gwilliams. It can help reset the system if it’s just a temporary glitch.
I’ve heard that if the battery isn’t functioning properly, it can lead to erratic behavior in the electric traction system. Has anyone had their battery checked recently?
I’m just waiting for my Peugeot to turn into a transformer one day with all these issues! Seriously though, I just want to figure this electric traction system out.
I had the same thing! A good handheld scanner can read the fault codes directly from the system. I recommend looking for an OBD-II scanner that supports Peugeot models.
