You have either:
Blown a fuse.
Crashed the BSI software.
Fried the BSI.
#3: Re: Urgent electrical fault Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 2:18 pm ---- You should ALWAYS ALWAYS disconnect the battery prior to messing with electrics. You wanna hope that you haven't fried the BSI!
Check EVERY fuse in the drivers fuse box, and EVERY fuse in the engine fuse box. Disconnect the battery correctly before removing the fuses.
If the fuses are fine, then I'm afraid its multimeter and wire tracing time

#8: Re: Urgent electrical fault Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 2:32 pm ---- Obviously you don't otherwise this problem wouldn't have happened.
Try rebooting the BSI [click my sig], and check all the fuses

Shut the BSI down CORRECTLY.
Check ALL the fuses.
Boot it back up & cross your fingers.
A multiplexed 206 doesnt like people fiddling with its electrical systems while there live, if your lucky its gonna be a simple / cheap fix plus a lesson learned
#10: Re: Urgent electrical fault Author: Big_Rich180, Posted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 2:34 pm ---- It sounds like a fuse, mine did the same thing one night while driving down a dark road lol
#11: Re: Urgent electrical fault Author: gavlar83, Location: walsallPosted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 2:36 pm ---- i have checked the fuses in under the bonnet and drivers side is there anymore?
#12: Re: Urgent electrical fault Author: paulrushton, Location: HuddersfieldPosted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 2:38 pm ---- Have a look in your handbook and see if any of the systems not working are on the same fuse.

Nope, & you shouldnt be playing with any of the fues if the battery is still connected as you can damage the BSI unit if you havent already.
BSI needs to be shut down correctly before you do any more damage.
