Second Hand Peugeot 108 Central Locking Motor

The Peugeot 108 uses an electrically actuated central locking system, but it operates via door lock actuators built into each door rather than a single centralised locking motor as a separate, standalone unit. If your locking has failed, the part you are most likely looking for is a door lock actuator (sometimes called a door lock motor or solenoid) for the specific door that has stopped working — nearside front, offside front, nearside rear, or offside rear. Ask your breaker for a Peugeot 108 door lock actuator for the correct door position, not a 'central locking motor'.

On the 108, each door has its own individual lock actuator, so a fault on one door means you need the actuator for that specific door rather than any kind of central unit. These are often integrated with the door latch assembly, so confirm with your breaker whether the actuator is supplied separately or only as part of the complete latch. Make sure to specify which door is faulty — NS front, OS front, NS rear, or OS rear — as the parts differ by position.

The Peugeot 108 (2014 onwards) is a successor to the 107 and shares its Toyota Aygo and Citroën C1 platform sibling relationship, but the 108 is a distinct generation with revised body panels and door geometry, so actuators from the earlier 107 are unlikely to be a direct swap. Confirm compatibility with your breaker by giving them both registrations, as latch and actuator designs can differ even on closely related cars. Never assume fitment based on platform alone.

Trim level does not affect which door lock actuator you need on the Peugeot 108 — Active, Allure, and Collection all use the same door mechanisms. What matters is the year of the car and which door position you need, not whether the car has extra kit or different upholstery. You may find cosmetic differences on parts stripped from higher trims, but the actuator itself is the same component.

The Peugeot 108 received a facelift in 2018 which brought exterior styling updates, but the fundamental door and latch architecture was not significantly redesigned. That said, whether the actuator or latch assembly is fully interchangeable across that 2018 boundary is something you should confirm with your breaker using both registrations rather than assume. It is a reasonable starting point to source from either era, but let the breaker verify before you buy.

The Peugeot 108, Toyota Aygo, and Citroën C1 of the same generation (all from 2014 onwards) are built on a shared platform and share a large number of mechanical components, so cross-brand actuator compatibility is plausible. However, whether the latch and actuator assembly is truly identical across all three badges is something your breaker will be best placed to confirm by checking part numbers against your registration. It is worth asking specifically, as many breakers who specialise in city cars will be familiar with this interchangeability.
