Steering Column Stalk Controls Citroën Peugeot 96773911XT 6242WQ

Description

Steering column stalks, multifunction COM2008 control block for PEUGEOT 3008 and 5008. Controls headlights, fog lights, radio, cruise control (stalk needs to be supplied or transferred), front wipers, rain sensor, ESP.

This multifunction stalk assembly (COM2008) is a direct-fit replacement for Peugeot 3008 I and 5008 I vehicles and is widely used by professional workshops and DIY mechanics. It consolidates multiple steering-column functions into one compact block—lighting switches, fog lights, wiper controls and rain sensor input, cruise control activation, and radio/stalk interfaces—reducing wiring complexity and restoring reliable driver controls. Suitable for technicians who search by part number (COM2008, 96773911XT, 6242WQ, 6243A0, 96773911ZD), the unit improves serviceability and speeds up repairs on affected models.

Compatibility And Fitment

Designed for first-generation Peugeot 3008 and 5008 models. Confirm the physical connector and mounting points match the vehicle’s steering column before installation. This part is commonly searched and referenced by the listed product codes.

Function And Symptoms

The multifunction stalk block centralizes: exterior and dipped beam lighting, front fog lights, windscreen wipers and intermittent settings, rain sensor interface, cruise control activation, and radio steering-stalk signals. Common symptoms of a failing unit include intermittent or non-working lights or wipers, loss of cruise control, unresponsive stalk switches, erratic wiper behavior, or electrical faults indicated by warning lights. Diagnostic trouble codes or unexpected behavior of related systems (lighting, wipers, ESP interaction) often point to this module.

Replacement Guide

General replacement steps for experienced technicians or competent DIYers:

1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal and wait at least 10 minutes to allow airbag system capacitors to discharge.
2. Remove the steering wheel airbag following the vehicle manufacturer’s procedure and safety precautions.
3. Unscrew and remove the upper and lower steering column trim covers to expose the stalk unit.
4. Unplug the electrical connectors from the multifunction block—note connector locations and locking tabs.
5. Remove retaining screws or clips securing the stalk block and withdraw the unit from the column.
6. Fit the replacement unit, ensuring correct seating and secure fastenings. Reconnect all connectors firmly.
7. Reassemble trim, refit the airbag, reconnect the battery, and verify all functions (lights, wipers, cruise, radio controls) before road testing.

Installation Recommendations

• Always disconnect the battery before starting work and observe airbag safety procedures.
• Inspect connector pins and wiring harness for corrosion or damage; clean contacts and apply dielectric grease where appropriate to prevent future corrosion.
• Transfer any required stalks or position sensors from the original unit when noted by vehicle fitment instructions.
• After installation, perform a full functional check of all steering column controls and related systems (lighting, wipers, cruise) before returning the vehicle to service.
• If unusual electrical faults persist after replacement, inspect fuses, grounds and associated wiring harnesses for intermittent shorts or open circuits.

Most Common Failure Causes

• Wear of internal mechanical contacts from repeated use causing intermittent or failed switch actions.
• Ingress of moisture or contamination leading to corrosion of contacts or connector pins.
• Broken plastic locking tabs or mounting points from mechanical stress or improper handling during previous repairs.
• Faulty solder joints or degraded electronic components in the module due to age and thermal cycling.
• Damage from electrical surges or poor grounding affecting the control block’s electronics.

This part is tailored for workshop technicians and experienced DIY installers who require clear part-number references and reliable fitment information. Proper handling during removal and installation significantly extends service life and avoids secondary damage to the steering column or airbag system.
