Error memory lock for Peugeot Partner petrol engine - experiences and solutions

Fault stored

Hey guys, I'm a bit stumped - I'm driving a 2011 Peugeot Partner petrol car with approx 180365km on the clock. Now my car is showing that a "central fault memory lockout is active". Have any of you ever had to deal with this problem? Unfortunately, my last experience with my garage wasn't great and I'd rather get some information before I go back there. How did you solve this and what was your experience with the mechanic? Thanks in advance!

Hello, I once had a similar problem with my 2014 Peugeot 308. In my case, it was a sporadic faulty communication between the control units - a real headache, I tell you! I went to the garage last time because the same message was displayed. It turned out that there was a problem with the CAN bus system. The mechanics had to reconfigure the control systems so that they could communicate with each other properly. It wasn't an easy procedure, but at least it wasn't an engine swap, right! Don't wait too long because it has the potential to get worse. Hopefully it goes better for you in the workshop this time. Good luck!

Hey, thanks for sharing your experience with your Peugeot 308. A fault lock in the control unit really sounds like a tough nut to crack! As you've had to deal with something like this before, do you remember how much you had to pay for it? And did anything else come up afterwards or did everything work perfectly again? Thanks in advance and best regards!

Hey, yes, that can be quite a blatant thing! Let me think about it... back then it cost me €955 to fix the sporadic communication error between the control units. Your fault sounds similar, so expect to pay around the same amount. Since then, my car has been running like clockwork! The central fault memory lock has been activated and my Peugeot drives again as if it was fresh from the factory. So you'd better go to a mechanic soon. Sometimes it hurts your wallet a bit at first, but on the bright side - it's less hassle in the long run. And sure, there are good and bad mechanics. But I hope your next one is one of the good ones! Greetings and good luck!

Hey, €955 is quite a lot of money, but with your words in mind I feel at least a little bit prepared for the trip to the garage. I really hope that I can have a positive experience like yours and that my Peugeot will be completely healthy again. Your tips and advice are really helpful. Thank you again for your time and I wish you all the best. See you next time and take care!
