Indicatore automatico Citroën C1 Peugeot 107 246329 2461E6 240781

Descrizione

Gear position indicator for the automated transmission of Citroën C1, Peugeot 107 and TOYOTA Aygo vehicles
Shift gate housing and gear lever opening cover
Up to and including model year 2013

Part description

The used gear position indicator with shift gate housing and gear lever opening cover is a replacement for damaged gear position markings or shift gate trim. It is designed for Citroën C1, Peugeot 107 and TOYOTA Aygo vehicles with an automated transmission from the specified production period.

The part clearly indicates the gear positions and covers the opening around the lever. Replacing a damaged part helps improve the appearance of the area around the gear lever and restore the correct fit of the trim. This is not a complete gear shift mechanism or transmission.

When looking for a replacement, the key identifiers are product numbers 246329, 2461E6 and 240781. In addition to the numbers, compare the shape, gear position markings and mounting design with the original part.

Installation recommendations

The following procedure is a general guide to replacing the gear position indicator and shift gate trim. The exact steps, mounting method and any electrical connections depend on the specific vehicle model and configuration. Installation details for this particular part are not provided in the documentation.

1) Before installation

• Compare the product numbers, dimensions, outline, lever opening, gear position markings and mounting points with the old part.
• Inspect the used part: check for cracks, deformation, and the condition of the clips, mounting points and cover.
• Make sure there are no loose parts that could interfere with the movement of the lever.
• If the repair is being carried out because of difficulty changing gears, first determine the cause. Replacing the trim alone will not fix a fault in the controls or transmission.

2) Required tools and materials

• Plastic trim removal tools for interior trim.
• Standard hand tools suitable for the fasteners actually used.
• A flashlight, a container for removed fasteners and a protective pad.
• A soft cloth and a cleaning product suitable for interior plastics.

3) Step-by-step installation procedure

1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and secure it against movement. Select the lever position required for removal according to the vehicle’s service procedure, and switch off the ignition before dismantling anything.
2. Protect the surrounding trim from scratches. Photograph the original fit and how the covers align to use as a reference during reassembly.
3. If an electrical connection needs to be disconnected, disconnect the battery according to the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions and follow the specified procedure.
4. Locate the fasteners for the surrounding trim. Release any necessary covers gradually, without forcing or bending them.
5. If the gear lever knob or another component prevents removal of the part, remove it only using the method specified for that vehicle configuration.
6. Release the fasteners securing the original indicator and shift gate housing. Hold the part as you release it to prevent damage to surrounding components.
7. If a connector is present, release its lock first and disconnect it by holding the connector body, not by pulling on the wires. Carefully remove the original part.
8. Remove dirt and any fragments from accessible contact surfaces. Make sure they do not fall into the gear shift mechanism.
9. Compare the two parts side by side and test-fit the replacement. Check its orientation, the position of the cover and alignment of the mounting points.
10. Reconnect any electrical connection and secure the part without deforming it. If it does not sit naturally in place, find the cause; do not force it into position with the screws.
11. Reinstall the removed trim parts and, if applicable, reconnect the battery according to the manufacturer’s procedure. Check the fit and operation before using the vehicle.

4) Post-installation checks and test drive / function verification

• Check that the part is securely fitted, the covers align correctly, the cover is positioned properly and the gear position markings are legible.
• With the vehicle safely secured and under the conditions specified by the manufacturer, check that the lever does not catch on the trim when selecting each position.
• If an electrical connection was disconnected, check that the relevant component works.
• Only take a short test drive after the checks have been completed successfully while stationary. If the lever encounters unusual resistance or the wrong mode is selected, do not use the vehicle until the cause has been resolved.

5) Common installation mistakes and how to avoid them

• Choosing the wrong version: compare product numbers, gear position markings and mounting points, not just the overall appearance.
• Breaking the clips: first determine how they are secured and use a suitable removal tool without applying excessive force.
• Pinched or displaced cover: check that it is seated correctly and that the lever moves freely before securing it fully.
• Pinching any wiring: before refitting the trim, make sure wires are routed clear of contact surfaces and moving parts.
• Deformation during fastening: the part must sit correctly before tightening. Do not compensate for resistance by applying more force.

Reasons why the part may be damaged

The following are common potential causes of damage to this type of gear position indicator and shift gate trim:

• Mechanical stress and impacts during use or when handling objects around the gear lever.
• Aging plastic components due to temperature changes and exposure to sunlight, which can make them more brittle.
• Careless removal that damages the clips, edges or mounting points.
• Dirt and spilled drinks that can soil the cover and cause moving parts to stick.
• Unsuitable cleaning products and abrasive cleaning that can damage the surface or make the markings harder to read.
• Incorrectly fitted trim that causes friction, deformation and repeated stress as the lever moves.
