Description
Product Overview
Original multifunction switch block located under the steering wheel for the Peugeot 308. Supplied in interior trim color FXT – Black Cornélie and identified by OEM numbers 9659417177 and PSA 649014. This genuine PSA unit provides direct replacement for compatible vehicles without the need for universal modifications when the part number and connectors match.
What It Does
The switch block controls key driver inputs mounted on the steering column: turn signals, low and high beam switching, front and rear wiper cycles and washers, and additional functions depending on vehicle equipment (e.g. trip computer controls or light/rain sensor options). It ensures ergonomic access to multiple functions from the steering column stalks.
Common Faults And Why Replacement Is Required
Typical reasons for replacing this unit are mechanical wear of internal contacts or failure of microswitches. Symptoms include intermittent or non-functioning indicators, unexpected wiper activation, loose or non-locking stalk positions, or random loss of certain functions. Age, frequent use and ingress of dust or moisture can accelerate contact wear.
Installation Notes
For safe removal and installation: disconnect the battery first (airbag safety), remove the driver airbag and steering wheel to access the switch block, then release the retaining clips and unplug electrical connectors. After installation, ensure the clock spring (spiral cable) and steering angle sensor are correctly positioned. On vehicles equipped with ESP, a steering angle sensor calibration with diagnostic equipment (for example DiagBox) may be required. Always compare connectors and the OEM number with the original part to guarantee compatibility.
Fitment And Compatibility
Designed for Peugeot 308 models (T7) that use PSA part numbers 9659417177 or 649014. Variants can differ by equipment level (fog lights, rain/light sensor, trip computer controls), so matching the exact part number and connector type is the most reliable method to avoid incompatibility.
