Peugeot 3008 navigation system disassembly and installation process: 1. First, remove the button panel on the center console carefully to avoid damage, disconnect all connecting wires, and then loosen the relevant screws. 2. Next, connect the navigation device to the vehicle's audio source, power supply, USB, and related multimedia cables in sequence, and secure them with tape to prevent loosening. 3. Finally, use screws and clips to install the new navigation device in the original center console panel position. Below is some related information: 1. The car navigation system uses the onboard GPS (Global Positioning System) in conjunction with electronic maps to conveniently and accurately guide the driver to the destination via the shortest or fastest route. 2. The car navigation system mainly consists of two parts: the navigation host and the navigation display terminal. The built-in GPS antenna receives data signals from at least three of the 24 GPS satellites orbiting the Earth, thereby determining the car's current location. The navigation host matches the position coordinates determined by the GPS satellite signals with the electronic map data to pinpoint the car's exact location on the electronic map.
I just finished removing and installing the Peugeot 3008 navigation system; as someone who frequently works on cars, I'm used to doing it this way: First, disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent short circuits, and prepare trim pry tools and a Phillips screwdriver. When removing the center console trim panel, gently pry the edges to avoid damaging the clips with excessive force. After removing several mounting screws, the navigation unit can be pulled out directly; there are wiring harness connectors on the back—carefully disconnect each plug. When installing the new unit, reverse the steps: securely connect the wiring harness, align and tighten the screw holes, and press the panel back into place. The process takes about 15 minutes; a key safety point is wearing anti-static gloves to avoid damaging electronic components. During testing, start the car first to check if the GPS functions properly. A reminder to car owners: if upgrading maps or replacing the touchscreen, refer to the service manual for similar procedures to avoid mistakes. Don't rush—slow and steady wins the race.
I upgraded the navigation system of my Peugeot 3008 by myself, and it was incredibly rewarding! After disconnecting the battery, I carefully removed the center console panel using a pry tool—forcing it could easily cause cracks. I located and removed all the screws, then gently pulled out the head unit; taking photos of the wiring sequence helped prevent mistakes during reassembly. After connecting the new navigation unit, I secured everything back in reverse order. A tip from experience: make sure every connector is firmly seated, or you'll have to start over; also, have all necessary tools ready and take anti-static precautions. I highly recommend installing a CarPlay module at the same time if you're considering it. The whole DIY process was highly enjoyable, but patience is key—each disassembly and reassembly taught me new skills. Don’t forget to test all functions, especially the navigation calibration.
