For anyone who may be interested, I fitted a new battery and the car is starting on the button now. Thanks for the replies and help

OK after a few days trying the priming it doesn't make any difference.
The main factor in this problem is cold weather. Makes it so much worse. So I'm thinking battery again....

It's spinning over fast and doesn't slow down as if the battery is struggling.
Yes there is a priming bulb under the bonnet will give that a try and report back. Thanks

Have a 90bhp HDI runs like a dream but has always been a bit slow to start. Had it about 2 years now. I notice now coming into the colder weather is turns over for a LONG time trying to start in the mornings. Thought it was heater plugs bought a new set and fitted but no better at all. Just wanting ...

Ok finally cracked this, the only problem was my stupidity :lol: took the airbag off again and pulled the spade connection off the back and touched it to the earth cable (T15 torx screw) and it sounded. Amazingly when I tried before I was touching it to the centre (metal) of the steering wheel which...

I don’t know what I was getting before unfortunately, I was just pleased it was working. Although my friend is breaking a 2001 hdi (D9 I believe but not sure, has crystal headlights etc) I was going to get the com out of it but unfortunately it has the older type controls with thin stalks, also the ...

Also this is my fuse box in engine bay, no relays in here. Not the type I’m expecting to see anyway. I’m looking for small square shaped items with pins on the bottom? What are these plugs for in between fuses? http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u146/dave-coupe/C8125F1A-181C-437E-BF15-2EF58584D05F_z...

Ok just to update this, managed to get my hands on a replacement com2000 unit (2nd hand) from a local mechanic, fitted and all worked fine. Horn beeping perfectly. 5 mins later took the car to the shops and tried to push the horn for another test while driving and it had stopped working again :oops:...

Anybody got a list of fuse numbers for D9 HDI just to make sure I’m not missing something stupid?

So are you saying it can’t be done? Will I need to replace the com unit then? This mux is a bit above my head.

Hi long term owner but rarely post. On my 4th 406 now ‘02 hdi estate with 170k, going like a clock :) Indicator stalk was in a poor state the slightest touch had me indicating left and right, so got a new plastic spud and spring from eBay and fitted now they work perfectly. Although now my horn has ...

Ok mate thanks

Is that peugeot specific or will any good brand of diagnostic computer be able to do the re-synch?

Didn't know there was a correct procedure I just turned the car off and disconnected the live terminal? Yeah I tried that turning the ignition on and holding the lock button for 10secs it isn't working. I also tried one which was locking the door manually and holding it for 5secs then unlocking it a...

Hi I disconnected the battery on my 2003 110 HDI 406 for about 45 mins to weld the exhaust. When I hooked it back on the RCL had stopped working, it has always worked perfectly since I've had the car until now. I tried searching online and found a couple of sequences for re-pairing the key but I'm n...
