Door open message 5008

Unread post by Leike »

Hello, in my Peugeot 5008 from 2014, I get a red warning light on, when a door is open.
When I drive about 5/10km/h there’s a graphic warning in my navigation screen. There it shows which door is open
Is it possible to get this graphic immediate when the car is not driving and a door is opened?

No, because that wouldn't make sense and would be annoying, as the warning would then come on every time somebody opened a door to get in or out, but especially if you are trying to use the system to plan a navigation route or make some adjustments that uses the display screen to show the info - you would keep getting interrupted by the display showing doors open. The warning should come on when the door or tailgate is not closed properly and you drive off as a safety warning.

On some vehicles you may in addition have a separate display in the instrument panel that shows a smaller graphic of one of the doors or tailgate not open with the engine running. Check this by starting the vehicle and opening a door - you should be able to see if you have this other display.

So as in the case of the tailgate in the above example from your handbook, it is first designed to give you the small warning lamp, but only the large graphic on the MFD only when you start driving.
Please note, I'm no longer active on the Forum, so won't respond to messages.

Oké, that makes senses.
Thanks for your explanation!
