ESP Switch For Peugeot 3008 And 5008 First Generation
Product Overview
This ESP control switch is a direct-fit electrical switch used on first-generation Peugeot 3008 and 5008 models. It allows the driver to deactivate or reactivate the Electronic Stability Programme (ESP/ESC) and communicates the driver request to the vehicle control modules. The unit is commonly listed under part numbers 96656492XT and 96656492ZD and originates from the Stellantis parts family for Peugeot/Citroën vehicles. Ideal for professional workshops and competent DIY enthusiasts who perform interior trim work and switch replacements.

- Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting work to avoid short circuits and unwanted airbag/module events.
- Carefully remove surrounding trim panels using plastic trim tools to avoid damaging clips.
- Unscrew or unclip the switch module, depress the retaining clip and unplug the electrical connector.
- Fit the new switch by plugging in the connector, securing the module and reassembling trims in reverse order.
- Reconnect the battery and verify switch operation and dash indication. If any faults persist, check wiring and related fuses.
Required Tools: Trim removal tools, common hand tools (screwdrivers, socket set). Typical replacement time: 30–60 minutes depending on experience and access.
Why This Part Commonly Fails
Switches in frequently used control panels are exposed to mechanical wear and contamination. Common failure causes include worn internal contacts, moisture ingress or corrosion, broken button mechanisms and damaged connector pins. Symptoms of a failing switch include unresponsive ESP on/off operation, intermittent function, dashboard warnings or a permanently illuminated ESP indicator. Replacing the switch typically resolves faults that are limited to the user interface.
Additional Notes
This part is intended as a replacement for the manual ESP/ESC control button assembly on first-generation Peugeot 3008 and 5008 models. After replacement, always confirm correct function by performing a road test and monitoring the vehicle’s stability control indicator. If the vehicle records electronic faults after swap, inspect wiring, fuses and related control modules for root-cause diagnosis.
