Description
Valeo COM2003 stalk switches for Citroën C5 II and Peugeot 407 ESP. They control fog lights, the trip computer, rear wipers, rain sensor and ESP. This is a used part; the stalks will not be as rigid as new ones, but they function correctly.
These steering column stalk switches are a practical replacement for workshops and DIY mechanics working on Citroën C5 II and Peugeot 407 models. Designed to operate multiple vehicle functions from behind the steering wheel, the unit consolidates controls for front fog lamps, trip computer functions, rear wiper, rain sensor interface and the ESP system. As a used Valeo COM2003 unit, it offers reliable electrical switching while saving you time during diagnostics and repair. Common search terms include Valeo COM2003, Citroën C5 stalk switch, Peugeot 407 steering column switch and part numbers 96611302XT, 6242S5 and 6239JQ — useful when finding the correct replacement quickly.
Technical Information
- Manufacturer: Valeo
- Model: Citroën C5 II; Peugeot 407
- Product Codes: COM2003
- Additional Numbers: 96611302XT, 6242S5, 6239JQ
Typical applications: Citroën C5 II and Peugeot 407 with ESP systems where a multi-function stalk controls fog lights, on-board computer inputs, rear wiper, rain sensor signals and ESP switch inputs. The part fits into the steering column assembly and connects via the original electrical connector — reference the vehicle’s connector shape and pin layout before installation.
Installation Recommendations
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting to avoid short circuits and airbag deployment risks.
- Remove the lower steering column trim (usually retained with clips and screws) to access the stalk mounting points.
- Unplug the electrical connector(s) from the existing stalk—note connector orientation and any retaining tabs.
- Unscrew or unclip the stalk assembly from the column and replace with the COM2003 unit; ensure correct seating of locking tabs.
- Reconnect the electrical connector and reassemble the trim. Reconnect the battery and verify all functions (fog lights, trip computer inputs, rear wiper, rain sensor response and ESP indicator) before road testing.
- Use basic electrical contact cleaner on mating connectors if corrosion is present, and avoid forcing plastic clips to prevent breakage.
Why This Part Commonly Fails
Failures most often result from internal contact wear, moisture ingress or mechanical fatigue of plastic parts and detents. Frequent use, exposure to humidity and contamination from dust or liquids can cause intermittent electrical contacts or stuck switches. Mechanical stresses from repeated operation or brittle plastic ageing may lead to broken levers or retaining clips. In some cases, wiring or connector corrosion causes loss of function even though the stalk assembly itself appears intact.
Note: As a used component, physical wear signs may be visible (slightly loose detents or cosmetic marks), but the unit is supplied because it performs the required switch functions correctly.
