Peugeot / Citroen C2 / C3 / XR4 3-Pin Female Cigarette Lighter / Power Socket Connector – OEM 98821-1031
Peugeot / Citroen C2 / C3 / XR4 3-Pin Female Cigarette Lighter / Power Socket Connector – OEM 98821-1031
Direct OEM-specification replacement for the 3-pin female wire harness connector used on cigarette lighter sockets and 12V accessory power sockets across Peugeot and Citroen (PSA Group) platforms. Cross-references PSA OEM part numbers 98821-1031 and 988211031. Black nylon housing — designed for centre console and dashboard 12V power socket applications on Peugeot 206 / 207, Citroen C2 / C3, Sega Elysee, and XR4 platforms.
What Problem Does This Connector Solve?
The 3-pin cigarette lighter connector is located in the centre console or dashboard, connecting the 12V accessory socket to the vehicle harness. It is exposed to heat from the cabin and mechanical stress from repeated insertion and removal of 12V accessories. A failed connector causes the cigarette lighter socket to be permanently inoperative, disabling 12V accessory charging for phones, dashcams, and other devices. The 3-pin design includes a separate illumination circuit for the socket ring light, which is a common failure point on PSA Group vehicles.
